| Outline of Research at the Start |
本研究では酸化ストレス抵抗性へのGPNMBの関与やNRF2抗酸化システムとの関係性を色素細胞やメラノーマ細胞で明らかにし、1)白斑発症と病態維持に際して酸化ストレス抵抗性破綻に関わる分子を特定し白斑発症予防や治療に役立てる、2)酸化ストレス抵抗性分子の遺伝子改変制御により白斑発症リスク化合物を安定評価できる細胞株の作出と高汎用性細胞評価系の確立、を目的とする。

| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Environmental factors such as infections and oxidative stress (OS) are involved in the pathogenesis and maintenance of vitiligo (VL). We have reported that the membrane protein GPNMB (Glycoprotein nonmetastatic melanoma protein B) expression is lost in the basal layer keratinocytes (KC) of VL lesions and are downregulated by IFN-γ. In this study, we investigated the physiological role of GPNMB in KC and its involvement in VL pathogenesis and maintenance of the disease state. As a result, this study showed that GPNMB contributes as an OS resistance in KC and is involved in differentiation, stratum corneum maturation, cell adhesion, and regulation of carcinogenesis-related gene expression, suggesting that GPNMB contribute to melanocyte floating and carcinogenesis risk.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
皮膚の色素細胞が消失し白斑形成が起きる後天性の自己免疫疾患、尋常性白斑の発症と病態維持には、酸化ストレスなどの環境要因も重要である。病変部の表皮細胞ではインターフェロンγの関与により膜タンパク質GPNMBの発現が消失する。本研究では、GPNMBの生理的役割と白斑発症や病態維持への関与を検討し、GPNMBが表皮細胞の酸化ストレス抵抗性、分化・角層成熟、細胞接着、発癌関連遺伝子の発現制御等に関わることを示した。これらの結果から、GPNMBが白斑での色素細胞の浮遊化や発癌リスクの低減に関与することが示唆される。
