Outline of Final Research Achievements

Several reports shows that　KGF(Keratinocyte Growth Factor) or MSC(Mesenchymal Stem Cell)ameliorates lung injury and promotes the repair processs. In this study, we transfected the KGF expressing adenovirus vector to MSC (KGF-MSC) and we hope that the KGF-MSC could deliver KGF to inflammation site efficiently.
We construsted the adenovirus vector that express the KGF. We confirmed that the KGF-MSC oriented KGF expression in the mouse. As the lung injury model, we established the conditions of the cecal ligation and puncture model and Supra mesenteric aretry(SMA) reperfusion injury model.
