Outline of Final Research Achievements

Intrarenal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activation is associated with hypertension and renal damage. In addition, abnormal circadian rhythm of blood pressure (BP) and organ damage including kidney correlates with circadian rhythm of intrarenal RAS activation. However, the reasons why circadian rhythm of intrarenal RAS activation is caused has not been known.
We have used in vivo imaging and clarified that the mechanism depends on leakage by glomerular filtration pressure of AGT originating from liver in the situation where glomerular capillaries are destroyed diffusely.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

糸球体濾過圧上昇の腎臓障害への関与は知られているが、糸球体濾過圧上昇により腎臓内RAS活性の基質であるAGTの漏出が増加し、腎臓障害や、臓器障害の原因となる日内変動異常の機序となることを明らかに出来た学術的意義は大きい。加えて、糸球体濾過圧を減弱することで腎保護効果がある新規糖尿病治療薬sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT) 2阻害薬の腎保護の原因に、今回と同様の腎臓内AGTの濾過減少による腎臓内RAS活性抑制が提唱される可能性を有する。更にはSGLT2阻害薬が全ての慢性腎臓病への適応拡大につながる可能性も秘めている。以上より社会的意義も大きい成果と言える。
