Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We previously identified that RNF213 is a major susceptibility gene for moyamoya disease (MMD) and its founder variant p.R4810K is a risk factor for not only MMD but also several other vascular occlusive diseases. The environmental factors and molecular mechanisms of MMD pathogenesis are largely unknown. To clarify them, in this project, we carried out epidemiological studies focusing on immunological factors in MMD, and elucidated cellular functions of RNF213. Specifically, we analyzed (1) RNF213-mediated signaling pathways involved in vascular occlusion, (2) relevance between mitotic failure and RNF213, (3) roles of RNF213 in response to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and (4) involvement of viral infection and gut microbiota in MMD pathogenesis.
