| Research Abstract |
HAI-1B is one of endogenous serine protease inhibitors. It expresses with prostasin in several organs, and acts as a regulator of prostasin. We elucidated that overexpression of HAI-1B decreased sodium current caused by ENaC, and we purified HAI-1B recombinant protein from silkworm hemolymph. We are preparing construction of renal collecting duct cell-specific HAI-1B knockout mice
