Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to complete a realistic roadmap for newt-like regeneration of damaged organs in the human body, we have attempted to elucidate the factors that trigger newt-type reprogramming in human cells and to extend the use of newts to various areas of medicine. During the course of this project, we have demonstrated the importance of cell-autonomous properties as well as the extracellular environment, which is altered by body metamorphosis and growth, for somatic cell reprogramming in newts. In particular, we demonstrated the importance of newt's unique blood components. We have also established experimental systems that allow direct comparison of newt regeneration and mouse scar healing (fibrosis).

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

遺伝子改変マウスおよび遺伝子改変アカハライモリを用いた研究が、体内の実験系と体外の実験系の両側から着実に進展した。特に、イモリにおいて、脱分化と再分化を再現し、哺乳類とも互換性のある細胞培養系が確立した点は大きな進展であり、今後の一細胞解析およびマウス細胞との比較解析により、線維症(硬化症や瘢痕)治療を含むイモリ型臓器再生医療に向けた現実的な工程表の完成に大きく近づいた。
