Outline of Final Research Achievements

Increased cathepsin Z (CSTZ) in serum and the liver and its altered localization in hepatocyte were characteristic features of end-stage of primary biliary cholangitis and other cholestatic liver diseases. Increased expression and altered localization of cathepsin B (CTSB) in serum and the liver were also observed in end-stage of these cholestatic liver diseases, CTSB was a surrogate marker for severe progression with cholestasis in PBC. Although CTSZ was not involved in bile acid-induced cell death, increased CTSZ affected signal molecules, intermediated filaments, and 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate metabolic process molecules in hepatocyte.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

治療薬への反応が乏しく最終的に肝不全に至るPBC肝不全進行に対する救命手段は肝移植しかなく、その進行メカニズムの解明や新規治療薬の開発は重要な課題である。我々は、ゲノムワイド関連解析によりPBCの肝不全型進行に関連する遺伝子として同定したCTSZに加えてCTSBが、PBC肝不全進行と他の胆汁鬱滞性肝疾患の重症化に関与している可能性を明らかにした。これらの研究成果は、PBC肝不全進行だけでなく広く胆汁鬱滞性肝疾患の重症化メカニズムの解明や新規治療薬の開発に繋がる可能性を有する。
