Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To find transcription factors which promote differentiation towards renal tubular cells, we utilize the human ES lines with doxycycline-controllable transcription factors (TF-inducible hES bank) and performed exhaustive search for DNA microarray data. Some candidate transcription factors were identified by in silico analysis. By using the lipofection method, we transfected the synthetic mRNA of target transcription factors to human ES cells, and cultured them. Five days after the transfection, we were able to observe characteristic morphological changes in the differentiated cells. The mRNA expression of OSR1, AQP1, and MEGALIN were increased. Moreover, the protein expression of AQP1 and LTL were also detected in the differentiated cells. We identified specific transcription factors for differentiation toward proximal tubular cells, and demonstrated that the differentiation of proximal tubular cell phenotype from human ES cells by a novel method using synthetic mRNA.
