| Research Abstract |
In this study, we focus on the MUC1 gene involved in mucus which has the ability of infection resistance. The aim of this study is to clarify the relationship between MUC1 and the ability of defending against infection. MUC1 gene was transfected to mammalian cells, and we examined the ability to defend against bacterial infection in the cells with MUC1 expression.
