Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, using genomic and metabolomic data of 1000 subjects whose plasma metabolome was measured repeatedly every 3 years and 3-year follow-up data of lifestyle and health checkups, we constructed a model to predict the development of alcoholic/non-alcoholic liver injury and to clarify the causal relationship between genetic and environmental factors and their interaction with liver injury in terms of The objective of this study was to clarify the causal relationship between genetic and environmental factors and their interactions and liver injury by pathway from the viewpoint of metabolic mechanisms. We conducted metabolomic analysis using multiple measurement systems and pathway analysis and mediation analysis to evaluate genome-lifestyle-metabolism-liver injury in an integrated manner, and constructed a model for alcoholic/non-alcoholic liver injury through metabolic variation due to the interaction of genetic and environmental factors.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

ゲノム研究の進展により、疾病の遺伝的要因の解明が進む一方、多因子疾患の発症要因は複雑で、遺伝-環境交互作用を含めたメカニズムの解明や、個別的発症予測モデルの構築は道半ばである。この進展のためには、前向きコホートでの遺伝・環境要因の収集に加え、体内の代謝動態を網羅的に測定するメタボローム解析を導入し、多因子の体内への複合影響を評価する手法が有用と考えた。本研究では、アルコール性/非アルコール性肝障害をモデルケースとして、遺伝要因と環境要因の交互作用により、代謝変動を通じて肝障害の発症に至るモデルの構築を行い、ゲノム-メタボロームコホートの個別的予防医療における有用性を示した。
