- T細胞免疫とIBD発症に 高いフルクトーズの消費がどう影響するか調べる
- フルクトーゼ誘発の免疫不調を緩和するメトホルミンの可能性を調査する.
主な方法:
- IBDの文脈でTヘルパー1 (Th1) とTヘルパー17 (Th17) 細胞の分化に対する高果糖摂取の影響を研究した.
- ラパミシン複合体1 (mTORC1) と活性酸素種 (ROS) 媒介型変形成長因子β (TGF-β) 経路のメカニズム的標的の役割を調査した.
- マウスモデルでメトホルミンの治療可能性を評価した.
主要な成果:
- フルクトーズの高い消費は,Th1とTh17細胞の生成を促進することによって,IBDを加速します.
- フルクトーズは,グルタミン代謝依存のmTORC1活性化とROS媒介のTGF-βシグナル伝達により,Th1/Th17の分化を促進する.

Overview of Carbohydrate Metabolism
1.8K
Carbohydrate metabolism is a fundamental biochemical process that ensures a constant supply of energy to living cells. The most important carbohydrate is glucose, which can be broken down via glycolysis to enter into the Krebs cycle and eventually lead to the production of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
Glucose transport into cells is facilitated by a family of transport proteins called GLUT (Glucose Transporters). GLUT4 is the primary glucose transporter for insulin-stimulated glucose...

Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction
148
The pancreas, an elongated and flat gland situated behind the stomach, serves a vital function in digesting food and managing blood sugar levels.
Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas, which occurs when the immune system becomes active and causes swelling, pain, and disruptions in organ function. Pancreatitis can manifest as either an acute or chronic condition.
Acute pancreatitis arises suddenly and lasts for a brief duration, while chronic pancreatitis is a long-term affliction...

T Cell Types and Functions
1.4K
When T cells with CD4 markers are activated, they give rise to two types of effector cells: helper T cells and regulatory T cells. Meanwhile, T cells with CD8 markers differentiate into effector cytotoxic T cells. The differentiation of CD4 T cells into helper T cell subsets, such as Th1, Th2, and Th17 cells, is dependent on the antigen type, antigen-presenting cell, and regulatory cytokines.

Inflammatory Response
7.1K
An inflammatory response is a localized, nonspecific immune reaction that occurs when a tissue is injured. It is characterized by redness, swelling, heat, and pain, which are commonly called the cardinal signs and symptoms of inflammation. Inflammation can sometimes result in a loss of function.
Inflammation can be triggered by various stimuli, such as impact, abrasion, chemical irritation, infections, and extreme hot or cold temperatures. These can damage cells and connective tissue fibers,...

Obesity
612
The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a numerical value derived from a person's weight and height, used to categorize individuals into weight ranges. It is calculated using the formula: weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared. Obesity is a health condition characterized by excessive accumulation of adipose tissue that poses health risks, often diagnosed with a BMI ≥ 30. This excess fat storage occurs when surplus dietary calories are converted into triglycerides and stored in...
