Method for study, determination or evaluation by gene expression analysis

摘要

There is provided a method for study, determination or evaluation of a disease condition due to SART stressing or a pharmacological activity, for example an analgesic activity, an autonomic imbalance-ameliorating activity or an anti-stress activity, of a test substance at the gene level. It is a method for study, determination or evaluation of a pharmacological activity of a test substance, especially an analgesic activity, an autonomic imbalance-ameliorating activity, or an anti-stress activity at the gene level by comprehensively analyzing the change in gene expression in a neural tissue after administration of a test substance in a SART-stressed animal. The method enables exploration of the substance that is effective against painful diseases, stress-related diseases, autonomic-imbalance or the like, determination and evaluation of efficacy of the substance, or analysis of a target gene of the substance
