| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The bidirectional disorders between the heart and kidney are focused as “cardiorenal syndrome”. In this project, we investigated the effects of calciprotein particles (CPPs) on cultured cardiomyocytes. We incubated neonatal rat cardiomyocytes with or without synthesized CPPs and performed DNA microarray analysis. In the pathway analysis, CPPs reduced the expression of genes involved in the electron transport chain pathway or the striated muscle contraction pathway. Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (Mcp1) gene was up-regulated by CPP stimulation. The transcriptional start site of Mcp1 gene in cardiomyocytes with CPP stimulation was highly enriched with histone H3K4 trimethylation compared with that in cardiomyocytes without CPP.
These data suggest that CPPs might be one of the causative agents for cardiac damage in chronic kidney disease patients and could be a target of therapeutic intervention in cardiorenal syndrome.
