Outline of Final Research Achievements

Klotho binds with the AT1 receptors to suppress angiotensin signal transduction, participating in inactivating renal RAS. Exogenous klotho supplementation represses Akt-mTOR signaling to reduce renal hypertrophy and restore the autoregulatory ability of GFR in uninephrectomized sp-SHRs. Klotho supplementation inhibits HIF-1α pathway and medullary fibrosis, contributing to enhancements of pressure-natriuresis and reduction in blood pressure.
Klotho supplementation reduces blood pressure and albuminuria along with ameliorating renal RAS activation in db/db mice. Klotho inhibits IGF signalling, induces SOD expression to reduce oxidative stress, and suppresses Akt-mTOR signalling to inhibit abnormal kidney growth. Klotho inhibits TGF-β and TNF signalling, resulting in a decline in renal fibrosis.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

慢性腎臓病で腎のクロト発現やクロトの血中濃度は低下している。外因性クロト蛋白補充は、高血圧性腎硬化症のモデルや糖尿病性腎臓病のモデルで腎保護効果を発揮することを示し、臨床応用に向けた基礎データを提供した。
今後はクロト蛋白補充の適応範囲を明らかとするため、また、副作用の有無を検討するための研究を計画している。
