Research paper : Mass preparation and technological development of an antifreeze protein (Y. Nishimiya, et al.)−14−Synthesiology - English edition Vol.1 No.1 (2008) and regeneration. This is called “hypothermic preservation”. It is important to have a certain period (1~10 days) before transplanting the cells to the patient, because the cells must reach culturing limit. The cell preservation activity of AFP is not common knowledge so far, since many papers report that AFP sometimes exerts no expectative activity, or performs worse than other substances. We think such uncertainties are due to insufficient amount of AFP needed to verify the reproducibility of data, and also due to imperfections in conducting this type of delicate experiments. Although some models have been proposed, it is necessary to clarify the cell preservation mechanism of AFP, and our AFP preparations in certain quantities are expected to contribute to future studies.
