| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We succeeded in detecting the ultra-small amount of abnormal prion protein in patients’ CSF with prion disease for the first time in the world. Furthermore, drugs with potential for treatment of prion diseases have been reported, and interventional intervention trials have been initiated. We research for therapeutic research and research for the early diagnosis of prion diseases· Establishment of pathology markers of prion diseases for research purpose. We also try to diagnose prion diseases from peripheral blood.
On the other hand, we will perform the global research group of rapid progressive dementia research, and as a top runner in the research of spinal fluid cerebrospinal fluid, we will conduct joint research on clinical application of biomarker and abnormal prion protein. Furthermore, although it is rare in Japan, we will try to explore pathogenic makers of clinical trials of fatal familial insomnia that has been reported abroad.
