| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Since AIM (apoptosis inhibitor of macrophage), a secreted protein produced from macrophages, has been shown to be involved in metabolic syndromes such as obesity, insulin resistance and atherosclerosis, regulation of both function and amount of AIM in body can be effective to prevent or control the AIM-related diseases. In this study, we investigated mechanism and materials for regulation of function and level of AIM. In addition, we presented that AIM is involved in the obesity-derived diseases such like auto-reactive antibody production and steatosis-derived hepatocellular carcinoma. Furthermore, we performed a large-scale analysis for blood AIM concentration in human including healthy individuals and patients with liver diseases, and demonstrated that AIM can be applied for the diagnosis of HCC in humans.
