Research summary
Differentiation control of pluripotent stem cells and its application in pharmaceutical sciences I am focusing on the differentiation mechanism of pluripotent stem cells such as ES, iPS cells and germ stem cells with primary emphasis on retinoic acid signal and effect of chemicals on the signal transduction to control their differentiation. My research also includes validation of natural compounds and synthetic chemicals on cell differentiation and carcinogenesis using genetically engineered stem cells. Recent data suggest that adipocyte differentiation can be switched to osteoblast simply using siRNA. This method can be applied for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis. In addition, we found that environmental chemicals modulate germ cell differentiation and retinoic acid signaling in pluripotent stem cells. I am also interested in the application of stem cell biology on preservation of endemic species of lake Biwa which is one of the ancient lake in the world. We succeeded to establish cell line from endemic fish (Gnathopogon caerulescens) and to recapitulate entire spermatogenesis to differentiate fertile sperm from spermatogonia in vitro.
