| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mechanical stress is a critically-important factor affecting bone tissue homeostasis. To determine whether physiologic mechanical loading affects the expression of factors regulating energy metabolism and transcription factors controlling chondrocyte differentiation, we focused on the interaction among mechanical stress, DNA repair enzymes and the cellular energy sensor sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) in cellular energy metabolism, since it has been recognized that SIRT1, an NAD+-dependent deacetylase, may function as a master regulator of mechanical stress response as well as cellular energy metabolism.
To further understand the involvement of sirtuins in the “cellular metabolism” and “stress tolerance” is conductive to the new insights into the pathophysiology and the development of novel therapies for a variety of osteoarthritis. We demonstrated the critical important roles of sirtuins in the cellular metabolism and response to mechanical stresses in osteoarthritic chondrocytes.

本研究は、変形性関節症の発症に密接に関わるメカニカルストレスに対する軟骨細胞の応答機構の分子メカニズムに着目し、軟骨変性機序との関連について解明を試みる初めての基礎的研究で、軟骨変性の機序を「軟骨細胞のメカニカルストレス応答」と、「DNA損傷修復」および「エネルギー代謝」との関連の観点から詳解し、新規の病因・病態解析および予防・治療法開発研究の糸口を得られた。
