Research Abstract |
A function of ABCG2, urate excretive transporter, is evaluated by the combination of the no-functional SNP, Q126X and the half functional SNP, Q141K. The estimated ABCG2 dysfunction leads to the urinary urate excretion increase and this mechanism was elucidated using Abcg2 knock-out mice. As a new mechanism for hyperuricemia, we demonstrated that hyperuricemia results from the intestinal urate excretion decrease via ABCG2, leading to urinary urate excretion increase (extra-renal urate underexcretion type hyperuricemia). We also indicated that ABCG2 dysfunction is related with early-onset gout and that the slight and mild dysfunctions mainly cause underexcretion type hyperuricemia, while severe dysfunction causes extra-renal urate underexcretion type hyperuricemia.
