Abstract: The present invention provides a novel method for detecting an indicator of T cell lymphoma. The method for detecting an indicator of T cell lymphoma includes the step of detecting acetylated tubulin in a T cell that has been collected from a subject.

Abstract: This TRPA1 activity inhibitor contains a compound represented by formula (I) wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and R5, R6, R7 and R8 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a methyl group or —O—R9—OH (in the formula, R9 represents an alkylene group optionally having a substituent group), provided that at least one group of R5, R6, R7 and R8 is —O—R9—OH.

Abstract: Provided is an antiperspirant which serves to control secretion of sweat secreted from sweat glands and is capable of doing so by acting on sweat glands without closing sweat pores, the antiperspirant containing, as an active ingredient to control secretion of sweat secreted from sweat glands, at least one type of pentacyclic compound selected from the group consisting of compounds represented by formula (I): and derivatives thereof, and compounds represented by formula (VII): and derivatives thereof.

Abstract: A method for observing the dynamics of sweat glands and a method for evaluating a substance of interest, which are useful for development of a preparation for external application, such as a cosmetic. In each of the methods, an observation sample is used, which is prepared by staining all sweat glands, which are isolated alive, with a staining reagent, and then holding the all sweat glands on a support using at least one material selected from the group consisting of collagen, agarose, basement membrane matrix, poly-D-lysine and a membrane.

Abstract: An immortalized sweat gland myoepithelial cell which expresses ?-SMA and pan-cytokeratin and has a sphere forming ability after subculture at least 5 times. A method for producing immortalized sweat gland myoepithelial said method comprising: while culturing a cell structure, wherein sweat gland myoepithelial cells are exposed on a surface, in a state of being suspended in a medium, transferring an immortalizing gene into the cells; and then culturing the transgenic structure thus obtained in a state of being suspended in the medium to thereby obtain immortalized sweat gland myoepithelial cells.

Abstract: Provided is a method whereby an objective indicator of an immune-related disease can be rapidly and easily detected, the method comprising detecting, as an indicator of an immune-related disease, a difference in the result of observing a primary cilium of an immune-related cell between a subject specimen and a normal specimen.
