| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is "construction of a microvascular system for elucidating the tissue stem cell maintenance mechanism". With the increase in lifestyle-related diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia, it is predicted that the frequency of arteriosclerosis obliterans and critical limb ischemia will increase in addition to myocardial infarction and stroke. For these reasons, there are high expectations for angiogenic therapy. In this study, we focused on pluripotent capillary stem cells (CapSC) and changed various physicochemical factors in an in vitro three-dimensional microvascular model. We constructed a bioprocess evaluation system at each stage regarding the role of CapSC in angiogenesis (promotion of angiogenesis or stabilization of blood vessels). The results are expected to elucidate the mechanism of tissue stem cell maintenance and to be applied to efficient angiogenic therapy by cell transplantation.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
In vitro三次元微小血管デバイスを用いることで、生体内ではブラックボックスであった各細胞、外的環境との相互作用を見える化することができる。ペリサイトとCapSCなど、細胞の種類を変えたときの血管新生過程を確認できるため、構成論的なアプローチで生体の現象を模擬できる手法は極めて斬新であり、適切かつ効率的な血管新生療法の提案に貢献できる。
