Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a rapid diagnostic method for Activated Pi3Kδ syndrome (APDS), a primary immunodeficiency disease. Using this method, large numbers of APDS patients were diagnosed and analysed. We found the presence of cellular immunodeficiency in APDS patients. A novel causative gene, PTEN, was identified. The results of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were summarized. Post-transplant engraftments were evaluated by analyzing the PI3K mutation using digital PCR. Increased phosphorylation of FOXO1 was found in T cells of APDS patients. After phosphorylation by PI3K activation signal, FOXO1 translocates to extra-nucleus, and the transcriptional activity is suppressed. It was considered that immunodeficiency is caused by the decreased expression of immune-related genes transcribed by FOXO1. ERK phosphorylation was found to be enhanced in APDS patient B cells. The increased phosphorylation of ERK was considered to be the cause of lymphadenopathy in APDS.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
原発性免疫不全症であるActivated Pi3Kδsyndrome(APDS)の新規遺伝子を同定した。迅速診断法を開発した。多数患者を解析し細胞性免疫不全があることを見出した。造血幹細胞移植の成績をまとめた。細胞内シグナル異常を解析しAPDSの大きな問題である免疫不全およびリンパ節腫脹の原因を解明した。難病であるAPDSの診断法、病態解明および適切な治療法の確立に貢献した。
