Outline Activities
We are investigating the molecular mechanisms, significance, and related diseases of large-scale and intriguing intracellular degradation phenomena occurring in vivo. So far, we have focused on the "phenomenon in which all organelles in the lens are degraded," the mechanism of which had remained unknown for more than 100 years, and have succeeded for the first time in identifying a novel organelle degradation mechanism (mediated by PLAAT phospholipase) that does not involve autophagy (Morishita* [*co-principal author] et al., Nature 2021). We will continue to focus on the mysterious intracellular degradation phenomena occurring in various organs in vivo, while further expanding our vision, by making full use of molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, and other techniques, including zebrafish, mice, etc.
