Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We found a lot of results on Schizophrenia, ADHD, Depression in human brain. Using molecular imaging, we also revealed microglial function in the brain to regulate reward system, as well as astrocyte interactions.Animal model for Schizophrenia showed the microglial malfunction by ADAM10 activation, and those protease functions related Schizophrenia was visualized by tracers of microglia for animal MRI.
