| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Autosomal dominant tublointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) is an inherited kidney disease characterized by the progressive renal function loss almost without no urine sedimentation findings. Almost all previous gene mutation sites in ADTKD-MUC1 were placed within variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs). We discovered ADTKD-MUC1 family whose mutation site was before VNTRs. We also discovered that mutant MUC1 protein was resulted in cytoplasmic aggregation. Furtherly, we made mutant human MUC1 transgenic mouse and found that these mice demonstrated systemic inflammatory disease. In the response to these transgenic mouse findings, re-examination in our patients revealed that they also had interstitial pneumonia, inflammatory bowel disease, and skin lesion, which had not been described as symptoms of ADTKD-MUC1.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
従来、ADTKD-MUC1の遺伝子異常部位は、VNTRに限られており、世界的にもVNTR以外のMUC1異常は報告されてこなかった。今症例は、VNTR以前に異常のある症例であり、症例的な意義は高い。また、ADTKD-MUC1の腎外病変については、今まで世界でも報告された事は無く、ADTKD-MUC1には、腎外病変はないとされてきた。申請者らの、transgenic mouse及び患者家系における、腎外病変の発見は、ADTKD-MUC1の病態像を根底から書き換えるもので、臨床的な意義は極めて高い。
