CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS
1. Clinical research on glomerulonephritis and CKD
I served as the Chair of the CKD Guideline Revision Committee of the Japanese Society
of Nephrology.
I am working as a leader of the steering committee on J-RBR/J-KDR (Japan Renal
Biopsy Registry/Japan Kidney Disease Registry).
I am also studying the pathological mechanisms of membranous nephropathy especially in
Japanese patients who are negative for anti-PLA2R Ab or anti-THSD7A Ab.
2. Clinical research on aHUS
I am working as a leader of nation wide registry of aHUS (Japan aHUS registry). We are
conducting sheep erythrocytes hemolytic assay, which can detect the dysfunction of
complement factor H.
I am also working as a leader of a guide for aHUS management in Japan.
3. Cellular therapy using adipose tissue-derived stem/stromal cells
We have found that adipose tissue-derived stem/stromal cells (ASC) has strong
regererative and immunomodulatory properties. We conducted a first human study using
ASC to patients with refractory IgA nephritis.
