| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Inflammation is the base condition of chronic heart failure. Recently, Orai3 was identified as an arachidonic-acid (AA)-responsive Ca channel, which play a role in the ion mechanism of inflammation. This study was aimed to clarify the role of Orai3 in the inflammatory mechanism in heart failure. In the experiment using knockout mice and Ca flow analysis, we showed that Orai3 participate in the condition of heart failure. Further, AA and nitric oxide (NO), which are known to be key signal of inflammation, are related in this mechanism. These data may lead to a development of novel therapy of heart failure in the future.
