Research Abstract

In order to establish animal model of depression, low dose glucocorticoid was administered to wild type mice as previous report, but it failed. Then we established p73 knock-in and knockout mouse, and confirmed p73 has no expression in adult hippocampus. Even with restraint, p73 expression is not changed in hippocampus. However we have finally found that p73 regulates ependymal cell cycle. Brain injury induces TAp73 expression and it decreases ependymal cell proliferation via unknown humoral signaling.
