| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Salusin-β was initially predicted from bioinformatic analyses in 2003. Salusin-β acutely regulates hemodynamics and chronically induces atherosclerosis, but its unique physicochemical characteristics to tightly adhere to all types of plastic and glassware have prevented elucidation of its precise pathophysiological role. In this study, we successfully established a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to quantitate plasma free full-length salusin-β concentrations. Free salusin-β levels showed circadian variation and its levels in patients with diabetes mellitus and panhypopituitarism combined with complete central diabetes insipidus showed significantly lower than healthy controls.
