Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition comprising a Ninjurin1 expression or activity inhibitor for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory disease. Ninjurin1 protein is specifically expressed in macrophages around blood vessels, increases cell-cell adhesion and cell-matrix adhesion, increases expressions of Wnt7b (Wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 7B) and Ang2 (angiopoietin-2), but reduces expression of Ang1 to induce apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells. In addition, Ninjurin1 protein is up-regulated when inflammation is induced and induces iNOS expression as well as increased NO generation. Therefore, the Ninjurin1 protein expression or activation inhibitor can be effectively used as an active ingredient of a composition for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory disease.

Abstract: Disclosed are data processing and analysis methods for gene expression data for identifying endogenous reference genes and a composition for the quantitative analysis of gene expression, comprising a pair of primers and/or probes useful in amplifying the identified endogenous reference genes. Introduced with the concepts of “Zero's proportion” and CV, the method allows different datasets to be integrally analyzed, thereby searching for novel reference genes. By the method, 2,087 genes are first found as housekeeping genes which are expressed in most tissues, and the usefulness thereof in the relative quantification of different target genes is determined by analyzing their expression stability. Of the 2,087 genes, 13 genes show higher expression stability with lower expression levels across a wide range of samples than traditional reference genes such as GAPDH and ACTS, and therefore are suitable for the normalization of universal genes having relatively low expression levels.
