| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, causative genes for familial Parkinson's disease have been discovered one after another, and it has been attempted to elucidate the pathogenesis of sporadic Parkinson's disease through its analysis. Parkin is the most frequent cause gene for familial Parkinson's disease (PARK2). We have identified several types of microRNAs bound to parkin in the intracellular mitochondrial and nuclear fractions as we proceeded to elucidate the pathogenesis of PARK2. Among them, it was suggested that parkin is involved in the processing of miR-132. Furthermore, the expression of miR-132 and pre-miR-132 in all fibroblasts (4 patients) obtained by skin biopsy of PARK2 patients showed a clear decrease compared to healthy controls.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
PARK2患者（4名）の皮膚生検により得た線維芽細胞において、その発現を健常対照と比較した。その結果、４患者すべてでmiR-132、pre-miR-132の発現は健常対照に比較して明らかな低下が認められた。この結果パーキンがmiR-132のprocessing/generationを促進していること、さらにmiR-132の発現抑制がPARK2 の病態の進展に関与していることを強く示唆するものであった。
