Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) is the most frequent cause of pediatric chronic kidney diseases. Better understanding of the pathogenesis requires identification of novel candidate genes. So far we had focused on a gene, CBWD1, as a candidate of a new CAKUT-causing gene. The principal aim of this study was to determine whether CBWD1 plays important roles in the kidney development. Kidney develops through the reciprocal interaction between two kinds of precurssors, metanephric mesenchyme and ureteric bud. To reveal the localization of Cbwd1 in the developmental kidney, we created cross sections of the kidneys at several developmenatl stages and performed immunohistochemistry using anti-Cbwd1 antibody. Then we found that the expression of Cbwd1 was increasing in ureteric bud cells from E13.5. Next we generated knockout mice for Cbwd1 and at now we are investigating the phenotype of Cbwd1(-/-) mice.
