Outline of Final Research Achievements

I analyzed a salivary gland damage - reproduction process for regeneration salivary gland.I reported articles in an authoritative magazine, "Benefits of long-term pilocarpine due to increased muscarinic acetylcholine receptor 3 in salivary glands" and "Runx1 mediates the development of the granular convoluted tubules in the submandibular　glands」
