Outline of Final Research Achievements |
1) Generation of ChREBP KO mice. We have succeeded in generating ChREBP KO mice (C57BL/6J) using CRISPR/Cas9 system. 2) Generation of high throughput screening (HTS) system using MES13 ChoRE-Luc cells. We have succeeded in generating HTS system using the cell line by obtaining Z score above 0.5. 3) HTS of Tohoku University chemical library: We obtained 13 hit chemicals among 5,861 compounds. Among them, we selected 1 compound (X) for the further investigation. 4) Administration of chemical compounds to Ins-iNOS-transgenic mice: We are now administrating the compound X to the mice.
