Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The project including a mouse kidney transplantation was extremely so difficult to accomplish in Japan that our graduate student studied abroad and carry forward the experiment in Duke University Medical Center, kidney research institute (Prof. Coffman TM) one and a half years ago. The donor mouse kidney, the size as same as adzuki bean, is quickly transplanted to a recipient mouse under an ophthalmologic microscope in 11-0 suture without injuring the renal artery, vein and ureter. This project has been going still now. The final aim of this project is development of a new therapeutic agent for chronic kidney disease by blood purification of uremic material and oxidation stress. As the new candidate drug was found, I started a cohort study of it.
