| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we will identify a novel receptor for F protein on inactivated Sendai virus particle (HVJ-E) and elucidate the mechanism of acquired immune activation against cancer via the receptor stimulation. Although we have not identified the novel receptor for F protein yet, we have found several candidate genes by mass spectrography. Moreover, we have revealed that IL-18, which is secreted from F protein-stimulated macrophage, exhibits the important effect for T cell activation.
