| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of Syk in human abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) pathogenesis using human AAA tissue. Immunohistochemical analysis showed infiltration of B cells, T cells, and macrophages in AAA samples. Syk activation was localized mainly in B cells and part of macrophages. AAA tissue in culture secreted IL-6, MMP-9, and MMP-2 without any stimulation. Secretions of IL-6 and MMP-9 were enhanced by exogenous normal human immunoglobulin G (IgG), which was suppressed by Syk inhibitor, whereas secretion of MMP-2 was insensitive to IgG or Syk inhibitor.The unstimulated secretions of IL-6, MMP-9, and MMP-2 were insensitive to Syk inhibitor. These results demonstrate an important role of Syk for IgG-dependent inflammatory response in human AAA.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究の結果は、ヒト大動脈瘤組織の炎症および組織破壊活性がIgGによって調節され、それがSyk活性に依存することを示唆した。 本研究は腹部大動脈瘤の病態解明に有意なとともに、今後の研究で、内因性IgGも同様にSyk依存性に大動脈瘤病態に関与するか、ヒト大動脈瘤におけるSykの活性化を明らかとすることで、Sykは有望な薬物標的分子となりうると考える。腹部大動脈瘤に対するSyk阻害療法の臨床応用が期待される。
