| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Susceptibility of macrophages to bacterial endotoxin was reduced in the presence of platelets or proteins derived from platelets, and these cells produced lowered levels of nitric oxide (NO) and inflammatory cytokines. The suppression of these macrophage functions was found to involve the negative regulation of the NF-κB signaling pathway; especially increased expression of nitric oxide synthase and decreased expression of arginase in relation to the suppression of NO synthesis. Furthermore, we attempted to develop novel sensitive methods for the evaluation of macrophage susceptibility to endotoxin. We have developed two methods, in which we utilized differentiated human monocytic cells or a reporter cell line containing NF-κB-responsive elements.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
細菌感染に伴うエンドトキシン（内毒素）ショックは，しばしば多臓器障害などの重篤な結果を招く．この過程にはマクロファージの過剰な活性化により産生されるサイトカインや炎症性メディエーターが深く関与する．本研究の成果は，血小板または血小板由来の物質によってマクロファージ機能の活性化が抑制されることを見出し，エンドトキシンショックの緩和及び重篤化予防などに貢献するものと思われる．また，本研究で開発したエンドトキシン感受性の高感度，短時間測定法は，創薬研究などの薬学的応用が期待される．
