| Research Abstract |
We have analyzed Ni allergy symptoms in focus on dendritic cells in the mouse model we produced. In this study, we regulated MKK6 expression and activation to regulate Ni allergy symptoms in our mouse model. In addition, we found activation of RhoA after the stimulation with Ni. From these data, it may be possible to control Ni allergy by regulation of small G-protein in dendritic cells.
