| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The submandibular duct of C57BL/6JJcl mice were ligated with titanium clips. The microarray analysis showed that the expressions of 103 genes and 15 miRNAs of duct ligation group were increased 4 times more than those of non-duct ligation group. The target genes of candidate miR-710 were Clip 4 and Ier 5 (cut-off value : 2.5 fold change). The expression of Ier 5 was localized in not duct cells but acinar cells. And these were increased the 24 hours ligation as compared with untreatment.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究結果より，Clip 4やIer 5は唾液腺の萎縮に関与している可能性が示唆された。この成果は唾液腺組織再生の研究にも貢献できると考える。さらに、臨床研究へ誘導できる重要な基礎研究として位置づけられ、“唾液分泌低下の改善”という患者のQOL向上が期待できるだけでなく、唾液腺疾患への治療応用へも可能性を秘めていると考える。
