Among these diseases, T2DM is a chronic metabolic\ndisease associated with hyperglycemia, elevated levels of glucose in plasma for\nprolonged periods, and insulin resistance in target tissues. Currently, the\nincidence of T2DM has reached epidemic proportions globally. Therefore, the\ntreatment of T2DM is of great importance. Amylin has been recognized as a\ntherapeutic target for T2DM management. The unclear mechanism of amylin aggregation\nhas hindered the treatment of T2DM.\nIn this study, I analyzed the in vitro aggregation process of amylin using the\nquantum dot (QD) imaging method. QD fluorescence imaging revealed that in the\npresence of 100 μM amylin, aggregates appeared after 12 h of incubation, while a\nlarge number of aggregates formed after 24 h of incubation. In contrast, 50 μM\namylin did not form aggregates after 12 h of incubation but produced a large number\nof aggregates after 24 h. Confocal laser microscopy observations revealed that\nthese aggregates were deposited in three dimensions. Transmission electron\nmicroscopy (TEM) revealed that amylin existed as misfolded fibrils in vitro and\nthat QDs were uniformly bound to the amylin fibrils. In addition, using a\nmicroliter-scale high-throughput screening (MSHTS) system, I found that rosmarinic\nacid (RA) inhibited amylin aggregation at a half-maximal effective concentration\nof 852.8 μM.\nIn vivo, amylin was microinjected into zebrafish embryos and exposed to different\nconcentrations of RA. Fluorescence imaging was used to monitor amylin aggregation\nin the zebrafish, with fluorescence intensity serving as an indicator of the extent\nof aggregation. Additionally, behavioral analysis was performed on zebrafish larvae\nat 120 hours post-fertilization (hpf) to assess the physiological effects of amylin\naggregation inhibition. The results showed that exposure to RA reduced fluorescence\nintensity in zebrafish, indicating a decrease in amylin aggregation. Moreover, RA\nexposure alleviated behavioral changes associated with amylin fibrillation\ntoxicity, suggesting that RA effectively mitigates the toxicity induced by amylin\naggregation in vivo. In the future, I plan to screen a broader range of amylin\naggregation inhibitors for in vitro and in vivo testing to further explore the\nmechanism of action in inhibiting the formation, deposition, and toxicity of amylin\naggregates.","subitem_description_language":"en","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"}]},"item_81_dissertation_number_13":{"attribute_name":"学位授与番号","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_dissertationnumber":"甲第544号"}]},"item_81_text_12":{"attribute_name":"学位の種別","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_text_language":"ja","subitem_text_value":"課程博士"}]},"item_81_text_14":{"attribute_name":"報告番号","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_text_language":"ja","subitem_text_value":"甲第544号"}]},"item_81_text_15":{"attribute_name":"学位記番号","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_text_language":"ja","subitem_text_value":"博甲第544号"}]},"item_81_text_16":{"attribute_name":"研究科・専攻","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_text_language":"ja","subitem_text_value":"工学研究科"}]},"item_81_version_type_24":{"attribute_name":"著者版フラグ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_version_resource":"http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85","subitem_version_type":"VoR"}]},"item_access_right":{"attribute_name":"アクセス権","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_access_right":"embargoed access","subitem_access_right_uri":"http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_f1cf"}]},"item_creator":{"attribute_name":"著者","attribute_type":"creator","attribute_value_mlt":[{"creatorAffiliations":[{"affiliationNames":[{"affiliationName":"室蘭工業大学","affiliationNameLang":"ja"},{"affiliationName":"Muroran Institute of Technology","affiliationNameLang":"en"}]}],"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"Xiaoyu, Yin","creatorNameLang":"en"}],"familyNames":[{"familyName":"Xiaoyu","familyNameLang":"en"}],"givenNames":[{"givenName":"Yin","givenNameLang":"en"}]}]},"item_files":{"attribute_name":"ファイル情報","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_date","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2026-03-01"}],"filename":"A544.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"8 MB"}],"format":"application/pdf","url":{"objectType":"fulltext","url":"https://muroran-it.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/2000340/files/A544.pdf"},"version_id":"3152c8fe-95a0-493a-9340-230cf1be3909"},{"accessrole":"open_access","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2025-06-12"}],"filename":"A544_summary.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"129 KB"}],"format":"application/pdf","url":{"objectType":"abstract","url":"https://muroran-it.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/2000340/files/A544_summary.pdf"},"version_id":"1e1f9dc3-bd75-43f1-b06d-a3b65257c0e7"}]},"item_language":{"attribute_name":"言語","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_language":"eng"}]},"item_resource_type":{"attribute_name":"資源タイプ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"resourcetype":"doctoral thesis","resourceuri":"http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_db06"}]},"item_title":"Analyzing amylin aggregation inhibition through in vitro and in vivo fluorescence imaging","item_titles":{"attribute_name":"タイトル","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_title":"Analyzing amylin aggregation inhibition through in vitro and in vivo fluorescence imaging","subitem_title_language":"en"},{"subitem_title":"in vitro およびin vivo 蛍光イメージングによるアミリン凝集阻 害の解析","subitem_title_language":"ja"}]},"item_type_id":"81","owner":"20","path":["227"],"pubdate":{"attribute_name":"PubDate","attribute_value":"2025-06-12"},"publish_date":"2025-06-12","publish_status":"0","recid":"2000340","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["Analyzing amylin aggregation inhibition through in vitro and in vivo fluorescence imaging"],"weko_creator_id":"20","weko_shared_id":-1},"updated":"2025-06-12T00:15:12.821378+00:00"}
