Outline of Final Research Achievements

There are cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) and calcium-independent PLA2 (iPLA2β and iPLA2γ) in the cytoplasm of human platelets. In general, cPLA2 activated with collagen, adenosine diphosphate, etc. produces arachidonic acid and eicosanoids, which play a crucial role in the process of platelet aggregation; roles of iPLA2 on platelet activation are ill-defined.
Our study has demonstrated that iPLA2, especially iPLA2β, is strongly related to human platelet function (aggregation, degranulation, eicosanoid production, activation of intrinsic clotting system) in response to thrombin.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

重症敗血症に伴う播種生血管内凝固症候群(disseminated intravascular coagulation; DIC)は、過剰な凝固系の活性化によって産生されたトロンビンが全身性の血栓形成を促進し、多臓器不全に至る疾患である。非常に致死的な病態であるにもかかわらず、十分な治療効果を示す治療薬は限られている。
本研究の結果から、iPLA2、特にiPLA2βに対する阻害は、敗血症性DICに対する治療戦略の一つになることが示唆された。
