Outline of Research at the Start

自己免疫性骨髄不全は、造血幹細胞に対する自己の細胞傷害性T細胞の攻撃が発端となって発症する造血不全である。本研究では、自己免疫性骨髄不全において、造血幹細胞が異常免疫から回避する新たな手段を同定することを目的とし、変異遺伝子の挙動を未治療時から治療後寛解に至る過程で経時的に解析し、変異遺伝子による時間的な造血制御の変遷を明らかにする。また、患者のiPS細胞由来造血幹細胞を免疫不全マウスへ移植することにより確立した「特定の表現型を有するヒト造血マウスモデル」を用いて、恒常的な造血を目的とした造血幹細胞の「免疫回避手段の多様性」および、それに伴う「造血制御の変容」を解明する。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

Aplastic anemia is a disorder that results in hematopoietic failure due to T cells attacking hematopoietic progenitor cells (HSPCs). However, the mechanisms that regulate hematopoietic control and immune evasion in HSPCs are not yet fully understood. This study aimed to investigate the expression of CXCR4, a chemokine involved in hematopoietic control, in HSPCs with diverse phenotypes. The results suggest that diverse immune evasion mechanisms and changes in hematopoietic control are required for steady hematopoiesis among HSPCs. Transplantation experiments using HSPCs induced from patient iPS cells revealed that CXCR4 expression may be controlled as epigenetic memory, which explains the observed changes in hematopoietic control in autoimmune aplastic anemia. These findings provide insights into hematopoietic control and CXCR4 expression in HSPCs, as well as potential novel therapies for hematopoietic failure.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

自己免疫性骨髄不全は、造血幹前駆細胞に対する自己の細胞傷害性T細胞の攻撃が発端となり発症する造血不全である。本研究において、患者iPS細胞から誘導した造血幹前駆細胞を用いた実験により、造血制御関連ケモカインであるCXCR4の発現が多様な表現型を有する造血幹前駆細胞の間で乖離しているとともに、その発現がepigenetic memoryとして制御されている可能性を示した。本研究成果は、造血制御機構の解明に大きく貢献するとともに、骨髄不全患者の良性および前がん性クローン性造血の鑑別に役立つ可能性が考えられる。また、将来的には個別化医療の進展にも繋がることが期待される。
