Poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (Parg) is a central enzyme for poly(ADP-ribose) degradation. We established aParg+/−mice strain by deletion of a part of exon 1 and around 0.4-kb upstream of sequences of theParggene.Parg−/−embryos obtained by intercrossing theParg+/−mice died in utero between 4.5 and 9.5 days postcoitum. We examined whether poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (Parp-1) deficiency could rescue embryonic lethality ofParg−/−mice.Parg−/−Parp-1−/−mice were born viable at a reduced frequency from the expected mendelian ratio in the intercross progeny ofParg+/−Parp-1−/−mice. The results suggest a possibility that the presence of Parp-1 is responsible for the lethality ofParg−/−embryos, and Parg molecules or Parg activity degrading poly(ADP-ribose) might be important for embryogenesis. InParg−/−Parp-1−/−mice, Parg protein was not detected in various tissues, and the protein level ofTimm23, a 5’-upstream gene ofParg, was reduced compared with that inParg+/+Parp-1−/−mice.Parg−/−Parp-1−/−mice showed retarded growth compared withParg+/+Parp-1−/−mice, and died within 3 months of age accompanied with severe renal failure. Glomerular sclerosis, tubular dilatation, and hyaline casts in the kidney were observed inParg−/−Parp-1−/−mice. An increase in blood urea nitrogen (p< 0.05), a marked increase of albumin level in urine (p< 0.01) and its concomitant decrease in serum (p< 0.05) were also detected inParg−/−Parp-1−/−mice compared with theParg+/+Parp-1−/−counterpart. The results imply that the combinedParg and Parp-1loss with a hypomorphic state ofTimm23leads to the development of severe renal failure.
