Outline of Research at the Start

潰瘍性大腸炎に対する再生医療工学を応用した新しい手術術式の開発を行う.ラット大腸全摘モデルを用いて,回盲弁温存終末回腸を神経幹細胞シートと Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor徐放ビーズを介して肛門と吻合する.回盲弁筋層と内肛門括約筋の筋間に新たな神経ネットワークを形成させることで,貯留能と排便反射を有する Neorectum を創出する.

Outline of Final Research Achievements

Focusing on the anatomical similarity between the ileal valve and the anorectal region, and the physiological similarity between ileal valve movement and defecation movement, we aimed to develop a new ulcerative colitis surgery by creating a Neorectum in a rat model by anastomosing the terminal ileum with ileal valve and the internal anal sphincter.
Based on the detailed dissection of the rat anorectal and ileal regions, we devised a method for dissection of the rectum and the terminal ileum with ileal valve. Ileal-anal anastomosis, ileal sac-anal anastomosis, and ileal valve-anal anastomosis were compared in rats. Unfortunately, the epidemic of COVID-19 infection prevented continued experimentation, and results could not be evaluated in many cases. Although we demonstrated the possibility of Neorectum creation in ileal valve-preserving terminal ileal-anal anastomosis, we could not clarify the function of Neorectum creation.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究は,現在の潰瘍性大腸炎根治手術の限界を、最新の解剖生理知見と再生医療工学を駆使して克服することを目指したものである.本研究の結果からその可能性の一端は示せたが,実現性についてはさらなる研究が必要である.
