Outline of Final Research Achievements |
High glucose evokes pathogenic gene expressions in mesangial cells to develop diabetic nephropathy. A glucose responsive transcription factor, carbohydrate response element binding protein (ChREBP), plays a pivotal role in such derangement of gene regulation. To establish a strategy for targeting the effector molecules downstream of ChREBP in diabetic circumstances, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation with anti-ChREBP antibodies followed by DNA microarray analysis and identified hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, platelet derived growth factor-C, and membrane-bound transcription factor peptidase site1 as novel target genes of ChREBP in mesangial cells exposed to high glucose. Those genes seemed to contribute to the extra cellular matrix expansion in the glomeruli, the regulation of ER-stress of mesangial cells. Targeting the molecules ameliorated gene profiles and pathology of the glomeruli of diabetic mice, indicating a possible therapeutic intervention of diabetic nephropathy.
