Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for treating, preventing or treating vascular disorders, hypertension and renal disorders, comprising a drug having an inhibitory action on the uptake of uric acid by URAT1, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. It relates to a pharmaceutical composition.
- the present invention provides a method of using a URAT1-expressing cell line in the presence or absence of a test compound to measure the amount of uric acid uptake, the proliferative capacity of cells, and the chemotactic activity of Z or cells.
- the present invention relates to a method for screening an active substance for treating, preventing or treating vascular disorders or hypertension / nephropathy, which comprises measuring the amount of sexual factor produced.
- Hyperuricemia an increase in serum uric acid concentration
- People are well-known for cardiovascular disease and / or have risk factors, so these collateral signs are believed to be related to both.
- Epidemiological studies, such as multivariate analysis, have been conducted to clarify that uric acid is associated with risk factors for hypertension-renal disease and cardiovascular disorders.
- the present inventors have developed a model that causes mild hyperuricemia in rats by administering a pericase inhibitor such as oxonic acid. Interestingly, these hyperuricemia model rats develop hypertension, glomerular vascular disorder, and renal disorder (see Non-patent Documents 16). This mechanism is mediated by the precipitation of crystals inside the kidney V, rather than the renin-angiotensin-based active dendrite compact plaque (densely aggregated in the distal tubule epidermis, It is a group of cells that stains densely and is in direct contact with paraglomerular cells.) It was thought that inhibition of nitric oxide nitrogen synthase was related (see Non-Patent Documents 1-2). The present inventors have reported that this vascular disorder occurs independently of blood pressure (see Non-Patent Document 2).
- uric acid causes vascular disorders independent of blood pressure, and therefore vascular smooth muscle cells
- PDGF platelet-derived growth factor
- Non-Patent Document 7 The present inventors further concluded that this pathway is characterized by specific mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAP kinases) (ERKs), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), the A and B chains of PDGF, In addition, it has been identified that the expression of PDGF- ⁇ receptor mRNA is involved (see Non-Patent Documents 2-4).
- MAP kinases mitogen-activated protein kinases
- COX-2 cyclooxygenase-2
- uric acid promotes the expression of monocyte chemotactic factor (MCP-1) in VSMCs, and that hyperuricemia stimulates vascular smooth muscle to stimulate cell proliferation. Stimulating, and furthermore, it has been shown to cause the production of inflammatory cytotoxicity (see Non-Patent Document 8).
- MCP-1 monocyte chemotactic factor
- uric acid enters VSMC and causes such a phenomenon.
- Uric acid receptors have been known until now. Since uric acid is a water-soluble substance, it is necessary to involve some kind of transport carrier in order to pass through the cell membrane and enter smooth muscle cells.
- Non-Patent Document 9 Studies on kidney cells have shown that the uric acid transporter is such that it contains both the organo-on transporter Z exchanger (OAT family) and voltage-sensitive channels (Non-Patent Document 9). 11). Some members of the OAT family, particularly OAT1 and OAT3 (via the basolateral membrane) and URA T1 (via the luminal membrane), mediate urate uptake in kidney cells. It has been clarified (see Non-Patent Documents 12-15). The mechanism of the voltage-sensitive channel Z transporter was also shown, and a putative transporter (UAT) was also identified (see Non-Patent Documents 16-18). In the rat VSMC, which of these channel Z transporters were expressed, whether they functioned, and whether or not they were! In VSMC, it was not known what substance functions as a uric acid transporter!
- URT1 novel clone
- the urate transporter URT1 (urate transporterl) has the ability to transport uric acid and its analogous substances from one to the other via the cell membrane, and further uses an exchange transporter using the other anion of the cell membrane as an exchange substrate ( urate / anion exchanger) (see Patent Document 1).
