Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a pattern recognition receptor, which has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications, inflammation, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer. Therefore it is important for RAGE relation diseases to inhibit RAGE signaling. In this study, we isolated and identified RAGE signaling inhibitory components derived from Japanese soy sauce low molecular fraction. Furthermore cos7 cells were transfected with a plasmid containing full length RAGE cDNA and V1, C1, C2 domain-deleted RAGE cDNAs to clear the essential domain for RAGE multimerization.
