Research Abstract |
We developed high special collagen of the certainty of the security supply that it was cheaper, and clinical application was possible as a substitute of atelocollagen where the effectiveness was confirmed as a siRNA introduction agent. The possibility that it was effective for the adjustment of the local skeletal muscle mass in the individual level was suggested when we introduced myostatin specific siRNA which was a skeletal muscle mass suppressor with this special collagen, and it was thought that we were connected for the development of the new cure for the chronicity hereditary muscular disorder in the future.
