| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to reveal the mechanism of tubular injury with diarrhea associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (D+HUS). At first, we gave Shiga toxin (ST) 1, and 2 to human tubular cultured cell to examine the maximal concentration and duration of toxin. As the result, 10*-7 in 24 hours of ST was most suitable condition with maximal apoptosis. Second, messenger RNA of apoptosis related protein was analyzed with array PCR method. However, few significant factors of apoptosis was not identified with the definite pathway of apoptosis. Same results was found in serum of patients with D+HUS. Third, we examine cytokines which developed during tubular injury. In our assay, there were no significant cytokines. Thus, our strategy or our assay were difficult to reveal tubular injury.
