METHOD FOR EVALUATING CHRONIC STRESS

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JP2007306883

Kind Code:

A

Abstract:

To provide a new method for readily, objectively and highly accurately evaluating the condition of chronic stress of a testee.

The condition of the chronic stress of the testee is evaluated by using a messenger-RNA derived from peripheral blood of the testee, based on the result of the expression analysis of a specific marker gene selected as the marker gene of the chromic stress. Further, the gene expression data of the testee are compared and analyzed with the previously obtained gene expression data of a healthy subject and a person in the chronic stress condition.
