Abstract: A probe or a probe set for evaluating influence of ultraviolet ray on the skin, which includes nucleic acids of (a), (b) or (c): (a) Nucleic acids including a base sequence constituting at least one kind of gene selected from the group consisting of GBA, GLB1, CAT, OLFM1, ASAH1, MMP14, MMP17 and COL18A1, (b) Nucleic acids including a base sequence complementary to the nucleic acids of aforesaid (a); (c) Nucleic acids which hybridize with nucleic acids including a base sequence complementary to the nucleic acids of aforesaid (a) or (b) under stringent conditions, and can detect a skin constitution-related gene.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for objectively evaluating the state of eye disease in a test organism. Provided is a microarray for evaluating the state of eye disease. Further, this method for evaluating the state of eye disease in a test organism is characterized by detecting, from a sample taken from the test organism, at least one gene from a prescribed gene group and comparing the obtained detection result with a control.

Abstract: Provided are a probe or a probe set which can evaluate what the skin condition or a skin cell is, and what kind of influence an external stimulation (particularly ultraviolet ray) to the skin or a skin cell has on the skin condition, such as elasticity and wrinkles, and a nucleic acid microarray which is loaded with the probe or the probe set. The invention is an invention related to a probe or a probe set for evaluating the influence of ultraviolet ray on the skin, which comprises nucleic acids of (a), (b) or (c) described below.
