하타 교수의 연구실은 간 이식의 핵심 과제인 기증자 간장 부족과 이식 후 합병증, 특히 지방간의 보존 및 기능 유지, 항체 매개 거부반응(AMR)의 기전 규명 및 치료 전략 개발에 중점을 두고 있습니다. 특히 냉각 보존 솔루션 Polysol의 효과, 혈액형 불일치 간이식 모델 개발, 항체 매개 거부반응의 동물 모델 구축, 그리고 대사질환과 관련된 결장암 발생 메커니즘 등 다양한 전임상 모델을 기반으로 한 기초 및 임상 연계 연구를 수행하고 있습니다. 또한, 이식 후 림프프roliferative 병변(PTLD)의 임상적 특성과 예후 요인 분석을 통해 이식 후 악성 종양의 조기 진단 및 관리 전략을 모색하고 있습니다.

Chronic shortage of donor organs has led to acceptance of steatotic livers as grafts, although there is a higher risk of primary graft dysfunction. We herein report the beneficial impact of Polysol, a newly developed preservation solution, on cold storage of steatotic rat livers. Dietary hepatic steatosis was induced in Wistar rats by 2-day fasting and subsequent 3-day re-feeding with a fat-free, carbohydrate-rich diet. Fatty livers were retrieved, flushed and then stored at 4 degrees C for 24 h
Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) remains a refractory rejection after donor-specific antibody (DSA)-positive or blood-type incompatible liver transplantation (LT), even in the era of pre-transplant rituximab desensitization. This is due to the lack of not only effective post-transplant treatments but also robust animal models to develop/validate new interventions. Orthotopic LT from male Dark Agouti (DA) to male Lewis (LEW) rats was used to develop a rat LT-AMR model. LEW were pre-sensitized by
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) are life-threatening neoplasms after organ transplantation. Because of their rarity and multiple grades of malignancy, the incidence, outcomes, and clinicopathological features affecting patient survival after liver transplantation (LT) remain unclear. We reviewed 1954 LTs in 1849 recipients (1990-2020), including 886 pediatric (<18 years of age) and 963 adult recipients. The following clinicopathological factors were studied: age, sex, liver
Obese people and diabetic patients are known to be high risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), suggesting need of a new preclinical animal model, by which to extensively study the diverse mechanisms, therapy and prevention. The present study aimed to determine whether experimental obese and diabetic mice produced by monosodium glutamate (MSG) treatment are susceptible to azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon tumorigenesis using early biomarkers, aberrant crypts foci (ACF) and β-catenin-accumulated crypts (
Preconditioning by brief ischemia protects not only the concerned organ but also other distant organs against subsequent lethal damage; this is called remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC). This study was designed to investigate the impact of intestinal RIPC on hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) with a special interest in heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) induction in the second window of protection (SWOP). Male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 groups: an RIPC group or a sham group. Be
Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is a refractory rejection after donor-specific antibody-positive or ABO blood-type incompatible (ABOi) organ transplantation. Rituximab dramatically improved the outcome of ABOi living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT); however, an effective treatment for posttransplant AMR, once occurred, is yet to be established. A 44-year-old woman with biliary cirrhosis underwent ABOi-LDLT from her sister (AB-to-A). Pretransplant rituximab diminished CD19/20-positive B lymp
Anti-C5 antibody significantly ameliorated hepatic IRI, predominantly via the C5a-mediated cascade, not only by inhibiting platelet aggregation during the early phase but also by attenuating the activation of infiltrating macrophages/neutrophils and hepatocyte apoptosis in the late phase of reperfusion. Given its efficacy, clinical availability, and controllability, C5-targeted intervention may provide a novel therapeutic strategy against hepatic IRI.
Cilostazol could alleviate CCl4 -induced hepatic fibrogenesis in vivo, presumably due, at least partly, to its direct effect to suppress HSC activation. Given its clinical availability and safety, it may be a novel therapeutic intervention for chronic liver diseases.
Cold storage (CS) remains the gold standard for organ preservation worldwide, although it is inevitably associated with ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). Molecular hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub> ) is well known to have antioxidative properties. However, its unfavorable features, ie, inflammability, low solubility, and high tissue/substance permeability, have hampered its clinical application. To overcome such obstacles, we developed a novel reconditioning method for donor organs named hydrogen flush a
C5 inhibition effectively suppresses progression to ALF in mice models of fulminant hepatitis, serving as a new potential treatment strategy for ALF.
Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is a refractory rejection after ABO blood-type incompatible (ABOi) or donor-specific antibody (DSA)-positive liver transplantation (LT). Pretransplant rituximab desensitization dramatically reduced posttransplant AMR development; however, risk factors for AMR in the rituximab era remain unclear in both ABOi living-donor LT (ABOi-LDLT) and preformed DSA-positive LT (pDSA-LT). Of our 596 adult LDLTs (≥18 y) after rituximab introduction (2004-2019), 136 were ABOi-L
Coincidence of HRS is associated with significantly worse outcome after LDLT, especially in the early post-transplant period.
