Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As a basic experiment in vitro for sirolimus stomatitis, oral mucosal cells were cultured from 7 passages to 8 passages. Sirolimus was added onto the cultured cells, and the reaction of the cultured cells was observed. As a result, the doubling time of cell proliferation was prolonged by 5 times at 10 nM compared to 0 nM. The DNA synthesis ability decreased by about 20%. The morphology was spindle-shaped and many large cells at 0 nM, and small spherical cells increased at 1 nM or more. The area of the nuclei was significantly smaller at 10 nM compared to sirolimus 0 nM. The area of the cells was significantly smaller at 0.1 nM, 1 nM and 10 nM compared to sirolimus 0 nM. Furthermore, the expression of E-Cadherin was suppressed, and cell-cell adhesion was weakened.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
申請者らは、リンパ脈管筋腫症に対するmTOR阻害剤の日米加共同MILES試験の日本側代表として試験の成功に貢献し、ついで安全性確立を目的とした医師主導治験を実施し、LAMに対する世界初の薬事承認に繋げた。その後、結節性硬化症の血管線維腫に対する外用が承認された。現在、難治性リンパ管疾患、限局性皮質異形成II型のてんかん発作、進行性骨化性線維異形成症に対する医師主導治験が進行中であり、益々適応拡大が予想される。mTOR阻害剤により高頻度に発症する有害事象の一つに口内炎があり、患者のQOLを著しく低下させている。mTOR阻害剤による口内炎の発症機序の解明と治療・予防法の確立は喫緊の課題である。
