Research Abstract

In this study, the expression and functions of gicerin were examined in development, memory and oncogenesis of animals. Gicerin appeared in the skin dermal autografs of chickens and promoted the regeneration of epithelia of grafts. Furthermore, gicerin promoted the metastatic activities of tumor cells including colorectal cancer cells and marek's disease. Gicern knockout mice were totally lethal in development, thus its potential role in organogenesis and memory remains to be elucidated.
