Outline of Final Research Achievements

We explored whether CollagenⅩⅨ, one of FACIT collagens, effects on the rhabdosphincter. We made CollageⅩⅨ knockout female mice and used 129/wild type female mice as control. We measured Leak Point Pressure as the functional assessment, and mean area of urethral lumen and urethal circumference of as morphological evaluations at 4week-old.
In resuls, there were no significant difference between two groups in functional and morphogical enaluations. So, CollagenⅩⅨ doesn’t involve with function of rhabdosphincter.
