| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we performed a functional analysis of fibroblasts in a patient with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) to elucidate the pathophysiology of "wound healing" and "squamous cell carcinoma" in RDEB. We have identified the expression of a specific molecule in RDEB patient fibroblasts and have clarified the molecular mechanism that the molecule is involved in "impaired wound healing" and "squamous cell carcinoma". First, We have observed the incidence of squamous cell carcinoma occurring in all RDEB patients (40 cases) at the Hokkaido University Hospital. Next, we analyzed the expression of molecules (TRIM29, keratin) involved in the progression of squamous cell carcinoma. We collected clinical specimens of squamous cell carcinoma in RDEB patients.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究成果の学術的意義として、7型コラーゲン欠損が創傷治癒と発癌機構に与える影響について検討した点がある。特に7型コラーゲン欠損線維芽細胞が、創傷治癒障害と有棘細胞癌の発生に関与するメカニズムに注目したことがあげられる。新規治療ターゲットとなる分子へのアプローチが可能となる可能性がある。社会的意義として劣性栄養障害型表皮水疱症患者の生活の質（QOL）向上に役立つ可能性があると思われる。
