Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are valuable in regenerative medicine, and MSC culture supernatant (MSC-CS) reportedly inhibits inflammation and fibrosis. We investigated whether the development of luminal stricture after circumferential endoscopic mucosal dissection (ESD) in the rectum could be prevented using MSC-CS enema. The degree of luminal stricture in the rectum was significantly lower in the MSC-CS group than in the control group. Furthermore, MSC-CS attenuated myofibroblast activation and hypertrophy of the muscularis propria and reduced inflammatory cell infiltration. Taken together, MSC-CS enema prevented luminal stricture after ESD, possibly by inhibiting the inflammatory reaction and fibrosis.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
近年の内視鏡技術の発達により、大腸がんを内視鏡で広範囲に切除する方法(ESD)が普及しつつある。しかしながら、広範囲に切除すると大腸が狭窄して腸閉塞になるリスクがある。我々は、羊膜間葉系幹細胞から分泌される因子に着目し、この細胞の培養上清をESD後の部分に塗りつけることで狭窄を予防できることを動物実験で明らかにした。この方法が確立すれば、内視鏡医が術後の狭窄を危惧せずに広範囲に切除できる可能性がある。
