Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research shows that (1) protein assemblies have advantages as CO releasing molecules, (2) protein needle with optimized surface charge can accumulate on brain of larva. The future challenges, which should be addressed, are (1) ROS and NO assay of eye disc, (2) the ROS imaging, (3) assay for expression of HO and NOS, and (4) inhibitory assay of sGC activation by CO.
