| Research Abstract |
In order to spend a sane social life with the high quality even if we grow old, we investigate mechanism of pathogenesis of xerostomia caused by aging in relation with AQP5 and scaffold proteins. We developed a diagnostic kit of xerostomia using AQP5 in saliva. We examined whether the impaired mastication/swallowing ability linked decreasing the value that we obtained with the kit. The decreasing of AQP5 trafficking and the enhancement of AQP5 mistrafficking to basal plasma membrane were improved by administration of plant ceramide.
