Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the ‘Millennium Genome Project’, we identified ATP2B1 as a gene responsible for hypertension through GWAS. However the role of the ATP2B1 gene in blood pressure homeostasis have not yet determined. Thus, we generated systemic heterozygous ATP2B1 null(ATP2B1+/-) mice. ATP2B1+/- mice revealed significantly higher SBP by a radio telemetric method. Phenylephrine-induced vasoconstriction was significantly increased in vascular rings from ATP2B1+/- mice, and the difference in this contraction disappeared in the presence of a nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor. In cultured endothelial cells from ATP2B1+/- mice, the phosphorylation (Ser-1177) level of NOS protein had decreased, and the production of nitric oxide was lower compared to those of control mice. These results suggest that decreased ATP2B1 gene expression is associated with impaired endothelial NOS activity and nitric oxide production, and the ATP2B1 gene plays a crucial role in the regulation of blood pressure.
