Outline of Final Research Achievements

utilizing peritonitis model, a novel function of TX, the facilitation of lymphangiogenesis via TP signaling was reported using tissue-specific TP knockout mice. Compared with wild-type mice, lipopolysaccharide-induced lymphangiogenesis in systemic TP-knockout mouse diaphragm tissues was suppressed with reduced drainage function from the peritoneal cavity. TP-positive macrophages and T cells accumulated in the diaphragm produced VEGF-C and VEGF-D in a TP-dependent manner. Removal of macrophages and T cells resulted in reduced lymphangiogenesis and lowered expressions of VEGF-C and VEGF-D. TP knockout specific to macrophages and T cells also led to reduced lymphangiogenesis and drainage function in mice with lipopolysaccharide injections. This study suggested that TP signaling exerts prolymphangiogenic activity by acting on macrophages and T cells and that TP signaling represents a novel target for controlling lymphangiogenesis.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

一貫して生理活性脂質(アラキドン酸代謝物など)の血管新生、リンパ管新生における役割を解析してきた。これらの物質は、生体内ではそれぞれの受容体に作用して活性を発揮する。遺伝子改変動物を用いて、受容体シグナリングの役割を解析した。血管、リンパ管新生という生命現象は、"炎症"や"がん"など、多彩な病態の進展に関与することを示せたことは意義が大きい。ゴードン会議などで成果を発表し、海外への情報発信を積極的に行ってきた。疾患に悩む患者が恩恵を得なければ意味がないという信念のもと、病態解析に立脚した創薬のシーズを提供することを心掛けてきた。リンパ管新生病態の進展に関与する多くの病態解明に貢献できた。
