| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are protein sensors located on immune cells, which function as pathogen recognition by the innate immune system. I developed TLR Card Game as an educational material to assist students with understanding the mechanism of the innate pathogen recognition. The TLR Card Game was carried out in an extracurricular class of a high school in Saitama City. The effectiveness of the material was assessed by questionnaires for 30 students. All the students got interested in the game and its immunology. Next, I developed An Adventure to Comprehend Immunity, which is a board game for connecting a desktop learning of immunology with an everyday occurrence and the world. Finally, the embryos of three echinoids were tested if they are suitable to observe in vivo phagocytosis. A swift phagocytosis was occurred in the blastocoel of the embryo of Clypeaster japonicus, thus this species is better for educational experiment.
