Speakers Renal Disease Initiatives

Renal Disease Initiatives

Future clinical research at the Intestinal Flora Transplant Clinical Research Group - Efforts to treat kidney disease
Representative Director: Dr. Zen Tanaka Jinzenkai Tanaka Clinic Medical
Corporation Chairman
Our research group has been conducting clinical research on intestinal flora transplantation (FMT) to treat not only gastrointestinal diseases such as ulcerative colitis and irritable bowel syndrome, but also children. It has been successful in treating autism spectrum disorder and allergic diseases such as atopic dermatitis. In the future, we would like to proceed with clinical verification for kidney diseases. From the perspective of entero-renal linkage, FMT may be able to suppress the decline in renal function in patients with pre-dialysis renal failure for whom no active treatment is available. This time, I would like to raise an issue regarding the application of FMT to kidney diseases.

Study on the safety and effectiveness of intestinal flora transplantation in dogs and cats with chronic kidney disease
Dr. Yoshio Toyofuku Hyogo Minato Animal
Hospital Director
Fecal microbial transplantation (FMT) in veterinary medicine has been reported in a wide range of animal species including dogs, cats, pigs, horses, cows, chickens, and monkeys, and it is still a treatment method with a high level of evidence. Although it cannot be said that this is the case, it has been suggested that it may be an effective treatment. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a disease commonly encountered in dogs and cats, with a particularly high prevalence in older cats, and is generally treated with therapeutic diet, fluid therapy, and drug therapy. I recently had the opportunity to perform FMT on dogs and cats with CKD, so I would like to report on the progress.

Inflammatory bowel disease case report

Case of irritable bowel syndrome and ulcerative colitis in which intestinal flora transplantation was effective
Dr. Mamoru Kimura Keinakai Medical Corporation Kimura
Hospital Chairman
Kimura Hospital Dr. Mamoru KimuraFecal microbial transplantation (FMT) is expected to be a method to improve dysbiosis in the intestinal flora. The Intestinal Flora Transplant Clinical Research Group performs FMT transplantation (NanoGAS®-FMT) using nanobubble water containing dissolved microbubbles. This time, we will report on the usefulness, safety, and simplicity of the procedure for cases of ulcerative colitis and irritable bowel syndrome in which NanoGAS®-FMT was performed at our hospital, which is responsible for primary care in the region.

NanoGAS Water Basic Research Presentation

Innovative material: Exploring the utilization of NanoGAS® in the pharmaceutical and food fields
Risako Morishita
Symbiosis Co., Ltd.
NanoGAS® (Nanobubble) not only has the ability to retain gas in liquid for long periods of time, but also has high potential as a multifunctional material for living organisms. Nanobubbles have begun to be used in cleaning and various industries, but their usefulness in the health science field is still under development. By advancing basic research while understanding the unique physicochemical properties that make NanoGAS so appealing, we are exploring the possibility of NanoGAS® becoming a “new modality” in the pharmaceutical and medical fields. This year, we also focused on the food processing industry and clarified the usefulness of NanoGAS® for general use. This time, I would like to summarize and report the research results of the past two years.

Luncheon Mini Seminar

Carbohydrates that make intestinal bacteria happy - Possibilities of fermented seasonings
Ai Kitamura Fermented food specialist
/Representative director of LOVE I FOOD EDUCATION general incorporated association
One of the things you should avoid when thinking about your intestines is “refined sugar.” Nowadays, you can always buy sweets at convenience stores. “I want to eat sweets, but I want to avoid them, what should I do? ” There are many people who have such problems. I also loved sweets, but the reason I was able to quit sweets was because of amazake. Amazake is rich in oligosaccharides and fermented metabolites, and is a sugar content that is good for the intestines. You can make delicious sweets using the amazake, and it can also be used in cooking. We will tell you the charm of fermented seasonings.

Keynote Speech

How to utilize the accumulated scientific knowledge regarding autism spectrum disorder (ASD) - From research to clinical development
Dr. Kenji Tsuchiya Hamamatsu University School of Medicine Children’s Mind Specially Appointed Professor, Developmental Research Center
 The prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a neurodevelopmental disorder (developmental disorder), in children is 2 to 3%. In recent years, social understanding of “developmental disabilities” and “autism spectrum disorders” has expanded, and awareness of reasonable accommodation has also increased. However, the cause of ASD remains unknown, and no biological treatments have established efficacy. Therefore, in order to interact with children and individuals with ASD in clinical settings, we are required to have insight and vision regarding how to develop and utilize limited knowledge, know-how, and techniques. This lecture will attempt to summarize recent scientific findings regarding the clinical characteristics of ASD and its biological and physiological background. We will also introduce how ASD is diagnosed in clinical settings and what kind of therapeutic interventions are used for children with ASD. We will then discuss how “scientific knowledge” and “realistic practice in clinical settings” should be blended, with a particular focus on how to diagnose ASD.

ASD case report

Case report of FMT using NanoGAS®︎ for ASD
Managing Director Masahiko Shirotani, Luke’s
Ashiya Clinic Director
 The cause of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has not yet been identified, and no drastic treatment has been established yet. In recent years, it has become clear that dysbiosis in the intestinal flora is associated with the symptoms of ASD. The effectiveness and safety of correcting this problem has been debated. Since the founding of our research group in 2017, we have been performing FMT using NanoGAS® water for ASD, and there have been cases where symptoms such as tantrums and poor switching were alleviated immediately after FMT. I have experienced cases where communication has improved. This time, we will discuss the trends in the intestinal flora, which we believe are characteristic of ASD, and review literature on ASD cases in which FMT using NonaGAS® was effective.

Prospects for NanoGAS Water Research

About the future of NanoGAS®-FMT
Shimizu Shinbiosis Co., Ltd., Councilor
The earliest origin of intestinal flora transplantation was in China around the 4th century, when feces from a healthy person was put into the buttocks of a person who had persistent diarrhea, which cured the diarrhea. It is said to be a treatment example. Time has passed since then, and research on fecal microorganism transplantation (intestinal flora transplantation) has progressed in Western countries, starting with a report on pseudomembranous enteritis in 1958. In 2013, a Dutch study found that it was effective in treating Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), and in 2014 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that “intestinal flora transplantation should be used to treat multidrug resistance in CDI.” It is positioned as the first treatment of choice, and its effectiveness is being proven medically. We have commercialized a technology that allows other people’s intestinal bacteria to colonize the recipient’s intestinal mucosa layer without using antibiotics, using our unique patented technology, NanoGAS®, to dissolve stool. The next goal is to purify a bacterial solution for transplantation in an environment as close as possible to the intestinal tract. We will talk about the development of the world’s first automatic bacterial liquid purification device “Monotone” and our future goal, NanoGAS®-FMT.
