Outline of Final Research Achievements |
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 (knockdown-mouse) was conducted. As a result, the expected phenotype which has change in hair was not observed, although it succeeded in producing a genetically engineered mouse.
