Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In motor neuron diseases, skeletal muscles throughout the body gradually degenerates and necroses, thereby not only impaires quality of life but also eventually dysfunctioning body systems indispensable for maintaining life such as respiration and swallowing. Currently there is no cure that suppresses the progression of the condition or maintains patient's physical activity. In this study, we developed a new regenerative medicine technology based on iPS cells applicable to patients with a variety conditions involving motor neuron loss. We found that induced neural stem cells tansplanted into the motor nerves supplying affected muscles go through neurogenesis and form an ectopic neural ganglion resembling spinal cord. By employing "the tacit learning", an AI with emergence capability, as control system, We showed that walking control is realized in rodents and that respiratory muscle paralysis can be treated in miniature swine model.
