Outline of Research at the Start

自己静脈を用いた動静脈瘻は維持透析用ブラッドアクセスの第一選択であるが、造設後一年の一次開存率は約60%と極めて成績が悪く、これまでの研究で動静脈瘻不全に至る症例の疫学的なハイリスク群が明らかにされている。本研究の目的は、マウス動静脈瘻モデルを用いて、動静脈瘻不全ハイリスク群における内膜肥厚のメカニズムを解明し、ハイリスク患者の手術成績改善につなげることである。性ホルモンの内膜肥厚に対する影響を検討し、動静脈瘻不全に対するホルモン療法の可能性を探る。ストレプトゾトシン投与によるⅠ型糖尿病マウスの動静脈瘻モデルを作成し動静脈瘻不全のメカニズムを解明する。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

Diabetes mellitus is a known risk factor for occlusion of arteriovenous fistulas for dialysis due to intimal thickening. We focused on vascular endothelial damage in diabetic patients and compared postoperative maturation of arteriovenous fistulas with and without sildenafil, which enhances eNOS, in a mouse model. Although there was no difference in arteriovenous fistula patency and degree of intimal thickening at 6 weeks postoperatively, the diameter of shunted vena cava tended to be dilated in the sildenafil-treated group. We attempted to create an arteriovenous fistula model in mice with type I diabetes mellitus by administering streptozotocin, but the mortality rate during the postoperative course made it difficult to conduct a comparative study with the control group. We also created an ovariectomy model in mice, but the postoperative mortality rate was so high that we were unable to create an arteriovenous fistula model.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

人工透析を要する慢性腎不全患者におけるブラッドアクセスの長期開存の確保は喫緊の課題である。これまで我々は動静脈瘻造設術後の成熟と不全を司るいくつかの分子に着目してきたが、いずれも動物実験段階から実臨床への応用の道のりには数多くのプロセスを経る必要がある。シルデナフィルは勃起不全症に対する治療薬として薬事承認を受けた薬剤であり、本研究を発展させて動静脈瘻に対する内膜肥厚制御効果さらに長期開存率改善効果が認められれば、比較的早期の臨床応用が期待できる。
