| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We sought to identify proteins whose levels in the CSF in lumbar spinal stenosis patients were significantly different from those in the control group by performing an exhaustive search with high-resolution mass spectrometry. Further validation using an independent sample identified 7 proteins. These proteins may be utilized as bio-markers for lumbar spinal stenosis.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
超高齢社会の日本において、高齢者に多くみられる腰部脊柱管狭窄症の病態解明および適切な診断・治療は極めて重要である。腰部脊柱管狭窄症を脳脊髄液中バイオマーカーにより客観的・定量的に評価する方法を確立することによって、腰部脊柱管狭窄症の病態解明や早期診断および治療効果の正確な評価等に寄与することができる。
