Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The naked mole rat (NMR) is the longest-living rodent in the world and has extraordinary cancer-resistance. We studied the mechanisms of NMR-specific tumor-suppressive phenomenon, ASIS (ARF suppression-induced senescence). We performed mRNA-seq analyses and found the genes which are upregulated or downregulated upon ASIS induction. We also found NMR-specific regulation of signal transduction in ASIS.
