Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated molecular mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of physical exercise on our health. To this end, we generated genetically modified mice in which the expression of a protein called Cas was deleted in osteocytes, the mechanosensory cells in bones. This Cas KO mice exhibited severe osteoporosis caused by excessive bone resorption with hyperactivation of inflammatory proteins. When we applied mechanical stress on cultured osteocytes, Cas translocated into the nucleus, leading to inactivation of an inflammatory protein and decreased expression of a bone resorption-enhancing protein. These results suggest that Cas is responsible for mediating‘optimal exercise’effects.
