Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We intended to analyze age-related disease from the points of ER stresses and immune responses. Acrolein, which is abundant in cigarette smoke, and cooking emission, plays a major role in COPD . Acrolein induced the expression of GADD34 and acute inflammation in airways, which followed COPD. Acrolein-induced phosphorylation of eIF2α in GADD34-knockout epithelial cells by shRNA protected cell death by reducing misfolded protein-caused oxidative stress. We examine the effects of GADD34 on natural life span by using GADD34-deficient mice. We found that with age GADD34-deficient mice become obese, developing fatty liver followed by liver cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and insulin resistance. GADD34 suppresses insulin signaling in young mice. However, by aging macrophages in fat tissues work to induce insulin resistance. We succeeded to differentiate to various tissue cells from iPSCs established from aged mice, which may repair damaged tissues by age-related diseases.
