Welcome to Yuzaki Lab

・Yuzaki Laboratory has been relocated to the Center for Human biology - Microbiota - Quantum Computational Research (Keio University)WPI-Bio2Q.。

In addition to the central nervous system、focusing on synaptic formation mechanisms in the peripheral, autonomic and enteric nervous system、we aim to clarify the linkage between the nervous system and multiple organs, and the pathology caused by its failure, and to develop new treatments.。

Lecturer Ishida's paper was published in J Neurosci

Rett syndrome is caused by a deletion or decrease in the amount of a nuclear protein called MeCP2 that binds to methylated DNA.、Highly associated with autism spectrum disorders。On the other hand、It is known that even if the amount of MeCP2 protein is increased, mental developmental disorders occur.。However、Until now, it was not well understood how the amount of MeCP2 causes mental illness.。In this study, the amount of MeCP2 regulates the three-dimensional structure of chromatin in nerve cells.、The possibility of changing the expression of various genes was clearly shown using a mouse model.。This work is based on the research conducted by Lecturer Ishida at Zogbhi Lab while studying abroad.、After returning to Japan, it wasPublished in J Neurosci.。
