| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was focused on "How Paneth Cell Network is organized" that may work as headquarters in the intestine. To invistigate this possibility, we established high purity and large quantity Paneth cell purification method, and analyzed membrane and secretion related gene expression in Paneth cells. Total 37 genes were identified and classfied into absorption of nutrition, nervous system, metabolism and so on, in addition to innate immunology, renewal and differentiation. These results suggest that Paneth cells may have many important functions and work as headquarters in the intestine.
