| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To identify the responsible gene for the intractable inflammatory diseases, we performed genomic analysis including whole exome-sequencing. In addition, we utilized disease-specific iPS cells as well as gene-targeted mouse models to delineate the pathophysiology of the inflammatory diseases. First, we identified NLRC4 gene as a new responsible gene for the CINCA/NOMID. In particular, we demonstrated the identified NLRC4 variant was disease-causing by genetic modification of iPS cells by CRISPR/Cas9 system. We also diagnosed FLNA deficiency on the 2 brothers suffering from inflammatory bowel diseases, valvulopathy, malrotation of intestine, and chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction. We created and studied knock-in mice for mevalonate kinase deficiency and BAC transgenic mice for Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome.
