Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This model rat yields low birthweight pups caused by a mild intrauterine hypoperfusion. Our previous studies have shown that the rats exhibit hyperactivity, which may reproduce hyperactivities observed in a subset of human low birthweight infants (Ohshima et al., 2016). In this subject, we have found that the model rat exhibits lack of sociality, which may reproduce human infants with autism spectrum disorders (paper in preparation). Histological evaluation of the brain and the measurement of cytokines in cerebrospinal fluid and serum showed that the model rat present a mild, but no significant, intracerebral inflammation and systemic inflammation (paper in preparation).

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
先進国の中で日本は最も低出生体重児の割合が多く、低出生体重児は高率に注意欠如多動性障害(ADHD)や自閉症スペクトラム障害を来す。それらの障害の原因は不明で治療法は限定的である。まずは症状を再現したモデル動物を開発し、次にそのモデル動物を用いて原因を解明することが治療法開発への正攻法である。本研究課題では、我々が独自に開発したモデル動物を用いてそれらの障害の原因解明に向けた検討を行った。
