Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We showed that antigen presentation by dendritic cells expand antigen-specific regulatory T cells and that dendritic cell-expanded regulatory T cells suppress autoimmunity and graft-versus host disease in a specific way using mice. Based on these our former reports, we performed experiments to control antigen specificity of regulatory T cells using murine and human dendritic cells. In this project in the past three years, we were able to report several findings including a dendritic subset to expand regulatory T cells specifically and its gene expressions.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究では、制御性T細胞を特異的に増殖誘導する樹状細胞のサブセットを見出し、遺伝子発現解析にも成功するなどの成果をあげることができた。これらの成果は、3つの国際学会で口演に選出され、学術的にも注目されている。重篤感染症や発癌の誘因とならない安全な免疫抑制療法の開発が、増加する自己免疫疾患、移植、アレルギーの治療に世界的に求められている。本研究の成果を今後さらに発展させることで、将来、日本発の安全で有効な制御性T細胞療法の開発に貢献も期待され、社会的にも意義が大きい。
