Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For development of scarring skin wound pharmacotherapy of which a target is TGF β / Smad signals, we studied skin wound healin osteopontin (OPN) knockout mice. The wound healing of skin delayed, formation of granuration and TGFb signal were inhibited in OPN mice.OPN neutralizing antibody inhibited expressions of fibronectin,collagen Ia1,aSMA in wild type (WT) mice.OPN neutralizing antibody suppresed the formation of the granulation tissue and may inhibit scarring in skin wound.
