| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although the involvement of DLX4 has been clarified as a factor involved in the efficiency of inducing iPS cells among different dental pulp cell lines, as a result of DNA microarray between different cell lines expressing this factor, one factor is cited. We also found that the expression of DLX4 can suppress the expression of DLX4 by treating dental pulp cells with TGF-beta, but as a result of investigating this intracellular signaling system, ERK, p38 MAPK, Akt activation was confirmed. Therefore, when investigating the involvement of the factor expression specified in the DNA microarray in these pathways, the involvement of the Akt pathway was suggested.
