Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Oestrogen and Cryba4 may be associated with the progression of masticatory muscle tendon-aponeurosis hyperplasia (MMTAH). Cyclic stretch induces decorin expression via yes-associated protein in tenocytes and decorin is upregulated in tendons of MMTAH, suggesting that tendons of MMTAH were subjected to cyclic stretch conditions. Comprehensive gene expression analysis revealed upregulated molecules which is related with mechanical stress or slow muscle. Moreover, we found that cyclic stretch upregulated specific genes in tendons of masticatory muscle but not Achilles tendons. These specific molecules may be associated with the onset of MMTAH.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
咀嚼筋腱・腱膜過形成症の病態は遺伝的要因と環境的要因であると考えられていたが、科学的根拠は全くなかった。本研究の遂行により、メカニカルストレス、特に反復性伸展刺激が腱細胞に対して特異的分子を誘導することがわかり、そのメカニズムの一部が明らかになった。以上は環境的要因の解明に役立つこととなった。また、遺伝的要因の解明として病態に関わる分子群の同定につながった。メカニカルストレスに関わる分子の解析により、整形外科における腱疾患の病態の解明にも役立つことと思われ、社会的にも大きな意義をもつ研究であった。
