Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We focused on EGF family in order to develop a novel therapy for canine atopic dermatitis. In this study, we studied about HB-EGF which mainly expresses in epidermis. We succeeded partial cloning of canine HB-EGF mRNA. In addition, the HB-EGF expression in canine keratinocytes cell line didn't change after stimulation with inflammatory cytokine.
