Outline of Final Research Achievements |
DETC (dendritic epidermal T cell), a γδ T cell present in the epidermis, has been shown to have an important role in skin diseases such as wound healing, skin cancer and contact dermatitis. However, the role of DETC in the skin immune response remains unclear. In the background it seemed that there was still no useful tool specialized for DETC analysis. In this research, for the purpose of constructing analysis method for elucidating the function of DETC, we screened 4 genes that code for molecules expressed on DETC.
