Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have been interested in the cytokine signal transduction cascade and its effect on drug metabolism. To extract the unknown protein, which may play as transcriptional regulators for metabolic enzymes as well as inflammatory cytokines, we have conducted immune precipitation following shotgun proteomics using LC-Mass. Finally, a chaperon-like protein Bag6/Bat3 was extracted and revealed to bind p65 subunit of NF-kappa B. Then, our interests moved on the miRNA, which may regulate Bag6/Bat3 expression. Using human rheumatoid arthritis as a model disorder, we established Excel VBA algorithm to look for the miRNAs that could regulate irritation-related mRNAs.
