Outline of Final Research Achievements

We conducted the genome-wide association study (GWAS) of gastric atrophy (GA) (diagnosed based on pepsinogen 1 [PG1] <= 70ng/ml & PG1/PG2 <= 3), severe gastric atrophy (sGA) (PG1 <= 30ng/ml & PG1/PG2 <= 2) and PG1/PG2 ratio using the data from the Japan Multi-Institutional Collaborative Cohort (J-MICC) Study (n = 3,385) and Hospital-based Epidemiologic Research Program at Aichi Cancer Center 2 (HERPACC2)(n = 2,885), and found that PSCA SNPs on 8q24.3, which also reportedly associate with the risk of Helicobacter pylori-induced gastric cancer, reached the GWAS significant levels, and subsequent SNP-set analysis supported these findings by the statistically significant associations of PSCA gene with each of the three traits of GA, sGA and PG1/PG2 ratio.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

今回の研究で、日本人に多いピロリ菌関連胃がんの前がん病変である、ピロリ菌関連萎縮性胃炎の遺伝的要因が、全ゲノムレベルでPSCA遺伝子にあることが明らかになり、将来の遺伝的体質に基づくピロリ菌関連胃がん及び萎縮性胃炎の個別化予防のための有用な情報(具体的には、事前に疾患リスクを知ることによる、ピロリ菌除菌や、胃がん検診受診などの行動へのきっかけ作り、等)を提供できたものと考えている。
