<p>A DNA expressed in mesangial cells at a high frequency; and a protein (Meg-3) encoded by this DNA. These substances are useful in identifying mesangial cells and detecting abnormalities, etc. in mesangial cells. Moreover, it is expected that the functions of mesangial cells will be disclosed on the basis of the function of the above protein and thus pathogenesis of diseases relating to mesangial cells will be clarified. Also, above substances are expected as being applicable to the treatment and diagnosis of diseases relating to mesangial cells, etc.</p> |
