Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for screening an immunosuppressant, a therapeutic agent of dermatoses or a depilation preventive. SOLUTION: A keratinocyte is cultured in both of the presence and the absence of a material to be tested, and an RNA is extracted from the cultured cells. An mRNA encoding follistatin is detected from the both cultured material, and the material to be tested is selected as a candidate for an immunosuppressant, a therapeutic agent of dermatoses or a depilation preventive when the difference between the amounts of the mRNA encoding the follistatin is present between the presence and the absence of the material to be tested. The method is useful for a rough screening method for selecting a candidate for a medicine.

[Principle of Action] It is well known that cyclosporin A is an immunosuppressant, and it is also known that it is useful as a therapeutic agent for skin diseases such as dryness and atopic dermatitis.
The present inventors cultivated keratinocytes in the presence and absence of cyclosporin A, extracted total RNA from the cultured cells, and, based on the total RNA, obtained the PC of the follistatin gene.
Detecting the transcription of the follistatin gene using amplification of the follistatin gene using primer pairs suitable for R amplification,
It has been found that the transcription (and therefore expression) of the follistatin gene is suppressed in the presence of a certain amount or more of cyclosporin A.

Accordingly, a similar experiment is performed using a test substance in place of cyclosporin A, and when the same result as that of cyclosporin A is obtained, the test substance is used in the same manner as cyclosporin A. It is rationally presumed that it is useful as an immunosuppressant or a therapeutic agent for skin diseases depending on the mechanism. In addition, since hair development is inhibited by the deletion of the follistatin gene, it is presumed that a substance that suppresses the transfer of the follistatin gene is useful for preventing hair loss.
