研究課題

独自の灌流デバイスを開発し、細胞と足場材料からなる3次元組織に灌流可能な血管ネットワークを作製する技術を研究しています。酸素や栄養を供給して大きな組織を維持したり、試験の対象である薬剤や免疫細胞などを流し入れたりすることができます。これまでに皮膚、肝臓、腫瘍（がん）といった組織の構築実績があります。血管付き3次元組織を用いた所望の薬剤の評価、任意の組織・細胞と本技術の組み合わせによる再生医療用や食品成分・薬剤評価用の新たな組織の構築、灌流デバイスそのものの共同開発やライセンスなどの連携が可能です。

研究課題

自律神経は、心拍数、消化、呼吸、血圧、体温、代謝の調節およびストレス応答など、私たちの体内で幅広い機能をコントロールしています。近年、動物愛護の観点から、生体外でこれらの神経機能や自律神経を介した臓器間の相互作用を模倣する動物実験代替法の開発が求められています。私たちはこれまでに、ヒト幹細胞から自律神経系（交感神経、副交感神経）を誘導する方法を開発しました。本研究では、脳腸相関を含む生体の自律神経ネットワークを生体外で再現する動物実験代替法とその評価法の開発に取り組んでいます。この技術により、自律神経に対する創薬スクリーニングや機能評価、健康食品や機能性食品の開発に向けた食品成分の評価が可能です。また、任意の組織・細胞と自律神経の連関モデルの構築および評価、細胞の作製、治療等で使用する細胞の非侵襲評価といった分野での応用が期待されます。

研究課題

私たちは、様々な疾患や腫瘍などの病態モデルを作製し、マルチオミクス解析を行っています。また、複数臓器を共培養するための独自のデバイスを作製し、個体の複雑な臓器間ネットワークを生体外で模倣する技術の開発に取り組んでいます。例えば、腸で吸収された食品成分等が肝臓や脳など他の臓器に与える影響等を解析することが可能です。この解析には、プロテオームやトランスクリプトーム等のオミクス解析から得られる多階層の統合情報を用います。本培養モデルは、動物実験を行わずに機能性食品素材のシーズ評価や薬剤の安全性評価が可能であり、 物質探索・評価等で連携できます。
