Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Understanding the roles of circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) can provide important information regarding disease pathogenesis and a patient's clinical condition.This study revealed that different signature of circulating miRNAs are associated with intractable GD. Moreover, circulating miRNAs of patients with intractable GD may activate immune cells, which may play an important role in GD pathogenesis.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究により自己免疫性甲状腺疾患、特にバセドウ病において変動する血中microRNAを明らかにした。これらの血中microRNAは甲状腺疾患の病態に関与することが示唆された。 これら成果は、これまで不明であった自己免疫性甲状腺疾患の病態解明につながるものである。さらなる将来的には治療や診断法の開発につながることが期待される。
