| Research Abstract |
Physical and mechanical stimuli such as gravity, extension, and shearing stress are generated throughout a living body. It has been gradually revealed that these stimuli, which are transmitted via the mechanotransduction mechanisms of cells, are not simply detrimental stresses for living organisms, but rather are biological information essential to developmental processes and functional adaptation of organs. In this project, on the basis of the development of original loading systems for mechanical stress to cells and tissues, the cellular adaptive responses to the mechanical stimuli and their transduction mechanisms in a variety of mechanosensitive tissues are to be examined. Thus, the project aims toelucidate the molecular mechanisms and roles of mechanotransduction system, which is utilized as a basis of many physiological events. It can also contribute to develop therapeutic approach to cancer invasion, cardiac hypertrophy, and regeneration of neuronal circuit.
