Research Abstract |
Recently we identified a novel factor SPACIA1 associated with synovitis. In this study we identified a core promoter of SPACIA1 gene. We have been trying purification and identification of transcriptional factor that bound the core promoter. We also discovered that SPACIA1 related a G1 phase-cell cycle factor (CDK6) gene expression. Using SPACIA1 transgenic mouse, we showed SPACIA1 is a disease-modifying, but not causal, factor.
