Outline of Final Research Achievements

It suggested that the GATA-3 transcription factor is associated with not only the Th2 type immune response but also the differentiation of NKT cells.The Th2 cells find that they are associated with the sthenia of the response in early period of metal allergy.We made clear that NKT cells functioned for an allergy to metal response restrainingly this time. Also, in the allergy to metal instruction study using the Gfi-1 genetic effect mouse, and determined sthenia of the allergic reaction and determined that pro-an in vitro experiment, an IFN-γ production was enhanced remarkably. Rather than these, it was suggested that the clinical condition of the allergy to metal was built as well as a Th1 type cells in the mechanism of pathogenesis of the allergy to metal by the reciprocal effects of the 2 type cells and NKT cells.
