Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have analyzed the properties of secretory granules devoid of phogrin and secretogranin 3 expressed in pancreatic beta cells. We have found novel findings of intracellular lysosomal morphology in phogrin-deficient beta cells. Our findings were different from those reported in previous studies showing drastic changes in lysosomal morphology. On the other hand, secretogranin 3-deficient beta cells were suggested a change in neutral sugar localization in the granule membranes. It has been clarified that secretogranin 3 is expressed in active amine producing cells in nerves, adrenal glands, in addition to peptide hormone-producing cells. Secretogranin 3 was revealed to be predominantly expressed in noradrenaline cells in adrenal gland. Furthermore, we focused on the expression of secretogranin 3 in the central nervous system and found expression in cerebellar glial cells including Bergmann glia.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
内分泌細胞における分泌顆粒の細胞内輸送や開口放出に関わる分子基盤や分泌調節機序に関しては、学術的知見の蓄積が豊富である。これに対し、分泌顆粒の形成から分解の機構の詳細は十分に分かっていなかった。本研究では、マウスリバースジェネティクスを駆使し、分泌顆粒膜に局在し、ペプチドホルモンのソーティングや凝集に関わっている分子がこの機構にどのように関わっているのかについて、一定の考察をすることができた。得られた結果は、生理的なホルモン産生低下の機序や内分泌代謝疾患の病態の理解にも繋がる基礎的な知見といえる。また、電顕糖質細胞化学により、内分泌顆粒の性状を解析した前例は無く、斬新性を有する。
