| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we conducted a comprehensive genetic analysis using a next-generation sequencer for neonatal-onset bile stasis of unknown aetiology, and found cases that were difficult to diagnose by analysis of known disease-related genes. We obtained basic data for further analysis using comprehensive exploratory methods such as exome analysis, transcriptome analysis using liver tissue, and methylome analysis. In addition, we performed molecular functional analysis of gene mutations found in a case of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis to evaluate the pathogenesis in vitro and to evaluate the efficacy of small molecules.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
新生児乳児期発症の原因不明胆汁うっ滞症の中には未だ疾患と関連する遺伝子異常が同定されず、今後新規疾患概念の確立に寄与できる集団が含まれていることが明らかになった。今後の胆汁うっ滞病態の分子機序を考察するうえで重要な基礎データが得られた。今後は未診断患者の一群から新規疾患の発見が期待できる。また、日本で最も多く検出されたABCB11変異について、分子機能解析を実施し、病態と新規薬剤の薬効評価を行い、将来の分子機序を基礎とした治療応用への展開も期待される結果が得られた。
