Outline of Final Research Achievements

WNK-OSR1/SPAK-NCC phosphorylation cascade is involved in salt-sensitive hypertension through regulation of renal sodium excretion and vasoconstriction. WNK kinases are mediated by KLHL2 and KLHL3, however, the detailed mechanism remained unknown. In this study, we generated KLHL2 knock-out (KO) and KLHL3 KO mice and analyzed their phenotypes. As a result, we elucidated the localization in vivo of KLHL2 and KLHL3, involvement of KLHL2 and KLHL3 in salt-sensitive hypertension, and the pathophysiological roles of KLHL2 and KLHL3 for the regulation of WNK-OSR1/SPAK-NCC cascade.
In addition, we also clarified that the WNK cascade is upregulated in salt-sensitive hypertension observed in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Proteasome inhibitor bortezomib were identified as a novel therapeutic candidate for fibrosis in CKD.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

高血圧患者は日本に1000万人以上存在し、中でも塩分感受性高血圧は臓器障害を起こしやすく、その対策は大変重要な課題である。今回我々が一連の研究により、KLHL3及びKLHL2の生体・特に腎臓における機能を解明したことで、WNK-OSR1/SPAK-NCCカスケードの上位調節機構について、より詳細な仕組みが明らかになった。このことは、塩分感受性高血圧の今後の病態全容解明や治療法開発に向けた学術的・社会的前進であると考えている。
