Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In mice, exposed to 3 Gy of X-ray irradiation, iv-administration of ghrelin significantly diminished a“decline-ratio”of WBC and RBC number in peripheral blood. This finding indicated a protective effect of ghrelin against the blood cell damage by the“myelo-suppressive dose” of whole body irradiation. Administration of ghrelin significantly and dose-dependently increased the survival-ratio of cultured human PBL irradiated by 3 Gy of X-ray. This finding indicated a direct effect of ghrelin on the PBL which have been reported to possess a classical ghrelin receptor (GHSR1a). Intravenous administration of ghrelin suppressed the PICA (kaolin-ingestion behaviour correlating emetic action) of mice indicating an anti-emetic effect against radiation sickness. Production and the secretion of ghrelin increased upon 3 Gy X-ray exposure in mice. These findings indicated that the administration of ghrelin might be one of the therapeutic candidates against the radiation-injury.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
脳腸ホルモン「グレリン」の分泌が、放射線障害を受けたマウスの体内で一過性に増加して、同ホルモンが放射線障害を抑制する可能性について報告した。グレリンには、各種の生体防御作用が既に報告されているが、今回のわれわれの報告で、放射線障害に対するグレリンを用いた治療の可能性が示された。グレリンには各種の誘導体(ghrelin-mimetrics)が作成されており、これらを用いた放射線障害への新たな治療戦略の可能性が、本研究を通じて示された。
