Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Imvolvement of tubular ion transporters and tubular renin-angiotensin system are essential for the development of salt-sensitivity and hypertension. Research team which Dr. Ishigami principally is running have clarified molecular biological mechanism for salt-sensitivity and hypertension which is called as, "tubular mechanism" through human molecular genetics and highly unique genetic engineered mice, such as Nedd4-2 C2 KO mice, (P)RR tubular transgenic mice, and Atf3 tubular specific KO mice. Currently, publication of Special Issues of International Journal of Molecular Science, entitled, "Ubiquitination in Health and Disease." by MDPI, Switzerland, Basel, is one of pivotal fruits of reseach by Dr. Ishigami.
