Research Abstract |
Many people hold a trouble of hair becoming thin with aging. Then, the experiment which searches for the gene which maintains and grows up hair using a genetically engineered mouse was conducted. As a result, the phenotype which has change in hair which was expected although it succeeded in producing a genetically engineered mouse was not observed.
