Problems solved by technology

[0004] In addition, it is known that when anthracycline anticancer agents such as adriamycin are administered to cancer patients, the risk of cardiomyopathy (drug-induced cardiomyopathy) increases in a dose-dependent manner (Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2)
Once cardiomyopathy develops, the prognosis such as developing into chronic heart failure is extremely poor, and sometimes it is difficult to continue cancer treatment
The mechanism of myocardial damage caused by doxorubicin is not clear, and the effective treatment is still unknown so far

Embodiment

[0191] 1. Doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy model mice (DOX mice)

[0192] (1) Production of DOX mice

[0193] Adriamycin (6 mg / kg) was intravenously administered to 10- to 11-week-old male C57BL / 6J mice through the tail vein once every 2 days. That is, when the day when doxorubicin was first administered was taken as day 0, doxorubicin was injected on day 2 and day 4 (a total of 3 administrations). At each time point of days 0, 7, 14, 21, and 28, body weight measurements and echocardiographic examinations were performed, and the amount of NKT cells in the myocardium and the expression levels of inflammatory cytokines were evaluated.

[0194] show the result in Figure 1~3 . figure 1 It is a graph showing time-dependent changes in body weight (BW) and left ventricular fractional shortening (FS) at each time point on days 0, 7, 14, 21, and 28. figure 1 In , an asterisk (**) indicates a significant difference (p figure 2 It is a graph showing the expression level of Vα14Jα1...

Abstract

The present invention provides a pharmaceutical for the prevention and / or treatment of nonischemic cardiomyopathy. The pharmaceutical contains dendritic cells obtained via a method including a step in which mononuclear cells are cultured in the presence of GM-CSF and IL-2; and a step in which the cultured cells are pulsed with alpha-Galactosylceramide.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a drug for preventing and / or treating cardiomyopathy containing dendritic cells pulsed with α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer), and a method for producing the same. Background technique [0002] Cardiomyopathy is generally defined as cardiomyopathy accompanied by cardiac dysfunction, with cardinal hypertrophy, cardiomegaly, and reduced systolic and / or diastolic capacity as cardinal symptoms. Cardiomyopathy is classified into dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, arrhythmogenic (arrhythmogenic) right ventricular cardiomyopathy, unclassified cardiomyopathy, specific cardiomyopathy. Specific cardiomyopathy includes ischemic cardiomyopathy, valvular cardiomyopathy, hypertensive cardiomyopathy, inflammatory cardiomyopathy, metabolic cardiomyopathy, etc. [0003] The cause of cardiomyopathy is mostly not clear, but genetic factors, immune abnormalities, viral infections, environmental ...
