Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The realization of an artificial oxygen carrier as a red blood cell (RBC) substitute is the most important issue in next-generation medicine. A new artificial oxygen carrier “recombinant(hemoglobin-albumin)nanocluster” (rHb-rHSA3 cluster) in which recombinant human hemoglobin (rHb) is bound to recombinant human serum albumins (rHSAs) has been synthesized, and its structure and oxygen binding ability has been clarified. The variant cluster in which Leu-β28 in the heme pocket of the core rHb was replaced with Trp showed an oxygen affinity equivalent to that of RBC. We have succeeded to develop a RBC substitute that can be stably supplied and is completely independent of human blood.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
少子高齢化が進む日本では、輸血液の不足が深刻な社会問題となり始めている。また、備蓄用血液が減ると、大規模災害時に必要充分量の血液を確保できない状況に陥る危険性もある。このような背景から、血液型に関係なく、ウイルス感染の心配もなく、いつでもどこでも誰にでも使用できる人工酸素運搬体(赤血球代替物)の実現が強く望まれている。rHb-rHSA3クラスターは 輸血治療の概念を変革する新しい化合物であり、我が国の持続的成長と発展を支える基盤医療技術の一つとなり得る。
