| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I hypothesized that Transient Receptor Potential Ankirin-1, one of the TRP ion channel family proteins, play a role as the front-line sensor to the environmental gas threats including hypoxic and irritating gases to prevent further incorporation of them by inducing arousal, avoidance behavior, and respiratory slowing. An affirmative results were obtained. Furthermore, TRPA1 located in the trigeminal nerve in the nasal cavity was most responsible for the responses.
