Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Tric-b-knockout mice provide an animal model of osteogenesis imperfecta. We found atypical cell death in Tric-b-knockout growth plate chondrocytes, that is caused by hyperactivation of the ER stress sensor PERK. In the muscle skinned fiber preparations from Mg23-knockout mice, we detected altered store Ca2+ handling, that is likely caused by insufficient Ca2+ leakage. Our observations indicate that TRIC and MG23 channels function as cation channels in sarco/endoplasmic reticulum and physiologically contribute to store Ca2+ handling.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
小胞体Ca2+ストアは細胞機能に不可欠であり、様々な細胞応答を制御する。一方で、Ca2+ストアのイオンバランスの分子機序は未開拓な学術分野であり、その疾患病態との関連も不明である。当研究遂行による成果は、TRICおよびMG23チャネルのイオン透過性はCa2+ストア機能維持に不可欠であることを示し、TRIC-B欠損による骨形成不全症の発症メカニズムの解明に貢献した。
