Research results showing that chondroitin sulfate is important for the formation of the "maxillofacial" and "suppleness of the skin"
It has long been pointed out that chondroitin sulfate is important for the formation of cartilage and bones of the hands and feet. We recently learned that chondroitin sulfate is important for the formation of the maxillofacial and head bones and the flexibility of the skin, and that it is involved in the expression and correct arrangement of collagen that supports these tissues and organs. We were the first in the world to discover that it is extremely important for the formation of external organizations. Detail isherePlease refer to the.

Research results on elucidation of the mechanism by which a "rich environment" "works" on the brain
It has been pointed out that an environment rich in stimulation through the five senses may be important for the development of the brain in children and the maintenance of brain function in the elderly. Professor Kosei Takeuchi (Director of Research Creation Support Center, Biology) of the Faculty of Medicine of our university is collaborating with Professor Shozo Kamino, Professor Jun Yamada of Kyushu University School of Medicine, and Professor Hiroyuki Kitagawa of Kobe Pharmaceutical University. , Chondroitin sulfate, which is known as a component of cartilage and is attracting attention for its involvement in the development and regeneration of the nervous system, plays a key role in the new production of nerve cells (neurons) in the post-development hippocampus by environmental stimulation. I was the first in the world to discover that I am responsible for this. Please see here for details.
