Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Based on genome-wide analysis and bioinformatic analysis, LZTR1 was selected as a candidate gene for a pedigree with conotruncal anomaly and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We performed in-vivo functional analysis for LZTR1 based on zebra fish model using the CRISPR-Cas9 system. A chimeric F0 mutant harboring a 7bp deletion germline allele was identified and backcrossed to wild-type fish to obtain F1 heterozygotes (lztr1del/+). F1 heterozygotes were crossed to generate F2 homozygous mutants (lztr1del/del), which recapitulated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Further, immunohistochemical analysis using anti-phospho-ERK antibody indicated active RAS/MAPK signaling, the deleterious signature of NS-associated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究では、RAS/MAPK症候群関連心臓病におけるLZTR1の重要性が明らかになった。本研究で作出された、疾患モデルゼブラフィッシュは今後RAS/MAPK症候群関連心臓病の病態生理の解明に役立つことが期待される。特に、ゼブラフィッシュから得られる単離心筋細胞は、哺乳動物のそれと異なり、中長期培養、薬剤刺激、RNA阻害実験に適しており、RAS/MAPK症候群関連心臓病の細胞レベルの病態生理を解析する上で、最適なプラットフォームを提供してくれると考えられる。
