NOVEL TRANSFORMED CELL, METHOD FOR SCREENING ANTI-AGING AGENT, AND ANTI-AGING AGENT

摘要

This invention provides a novel transformed cell usefulin constructing an anti-aging agent screening system, ascreening method which uses the same and an anti-aging agent,and it relates to a transformed cell in which a gene codingfor (a) a protein capable of phosphorylating p38 protein, or(b) p38 protein, a mutant of p38 protein, a kinase domain ofp38 protein, a kinase domain of p38 protein mutant or a fusionprotein containing them is transformed into a normal cell, ascreening method which uses this transformed cell and ananti-aging agent which uses a compound obtained by the screeningmethod as the active ingredient.
