  • Proliferative glomerulonephritis-related gene
    Publication number: 20070128186
    Abstract: A gene which is useful in searching for a therapeutic agent which restores tissue that suffered damage in a renal disease, a polypeptide encoded by the gene and an antibody which recognizes the polypeptide, are provided. A gene whose expression level changes depending on progression and recovery of the pathology in a proliferative glomerulonephritis model animal is obtained, and a polypeptide encoded by the gene and an antibody which recognizes the polypeptide are produced. These gene, polypeptide and antibody can be used in the search for an agent for restoring kidney tissue that suffered damage and an agent for diagnosing kidney disorder.

  • Kidney repairing factor
    Publication number: 20050048602
    Abstract: A protein [kidney regeneration factor (KRGF-1)] whose expression is increased at the time of regeneration of damaged tissues in patients with renal diseases is isolated, and a DNA encoding the protein and an antibody recognizing the protein are produced. These materials can be utilized in screening of therapeutic agents for regenerating damaged renal tissues and in diagnosis of renal damage.
