| Research Abstract |
The adaptor protein p66Shc is a lifespan determinant that integrates metabolic and longevity pathways, and plays a critical role in oxidative stress-mediated aging, cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we investigated the role of p66Shc in kidney diseases. Indoxyl sulfate, one of the uremic toxin, activated p66Shc in the cells derived from proximal convoluted tubule. Furthermore, p66Shc promoted the oxidative stress in proximal convoluted tubule. p21 was regulated by the activities of p66Shc. It was suggested that p66Shc promotes the renal tubular disorder by indoxyl sulfate.
