Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As a result of 3 years of research, we succeeded in creating two types of Zellweger syndrome model fish, severe type and mild type, by genome editing technique. In severe form, there were abnormal peroxisomal metabolic functions and phenotypes reflecting the pathology of patients including early death, failure to thrive and declining motor function. It was also confirmed that fatty liver was recognized earlier. Currently, pathological examination of the central nervous system and microarray analysis are underway. The pathophysiological analysis method using the model fish established by the results of this research may elucidate the pathology of a life-related disease based on abnormal lipid metabolism and develop the therapeutic research, as well as peroxisomal diseases.
