The present invention relates to an adipose tissue reconstruction member and a method for producing the same. Specifically, the present invention relates to a member for reconstructing adipose tissue that is used for reconstructing a breast (adipose tissue) by embedding in a breast defect portion obtained by excising a lesion tissue of breast cancer.

乳がんの治療方法として、乳房にできたがんを手術により切除する方法(外科療法)が
採用されている。近年、患者のQOLの観点から、乳房の病巣組織を部分的に切除する乳

As a method for treating breast cancer, a method (surgical treatment) in which cancer formed in the breast is removed by surgery is employed. In recent years, from the viewpoint of QOL of patients, breast-conserving surgery for partially resecting the lesion tissue of the breast has become widespread, but even partial resection inevitably causes depression in the affected area, which makes the patient mentally There is no change in imposing a heavy burden. As a result, an increasing number of patients undergo breast reconstruction after surgery.

乳房再建術としては、シリコン製のインプラントが主に用いられているが、生体非吸収
性であるため感染を起こす可能性があり、また、接触によるアレルギー、発がん等の悪影
響も懸念されている。
Silicone implants are mainly used for breast reconstruction, but they may cause infection because they are non-absorbable in the body, and there are concerns about adverse effects such as allergies and carcinogenesis due to contact.

他の方法として、他部位から脂肪組織を採取し、それを陥没のある患部に移植する方法
もあるが、移植後速やかに吸収されてしまい再度陥没することがある。また、組織を採取
することで新たな創傷が生じQOLの観点から必ずしも好ましくない。
As another method, there is a method in which adipose tissue is collected from another site and transplanted into an affected part having a depression, but it may be absorbed quickly after the transplantation and may be depressed again. In addition, a new wound is generated by collecting the tissue, which is not always preferable from the viewpoint of QOL.

そこで、乳房組織の部分的切除により生じた窪みや変形を整えて乳房を再建するために
、生体適合性の多孔質シートから形成される、内部空間を有する袋状部を備え、該袋状部
に基づいて弾性復元力を有する乳房メッシュインプラントが報告されている(特許文献1
及び2)。
Therefore, in order to reconstruct the breast by adjusting the depressions and deformations caused by partial excision of the breast tissue, the bag-like portion having an internal space formed from a biocompatible porous sheet is provided. A breast mesh implant having an elastic restoring force based on the above has been reported (Patent Document 1).
And 2).

しかし、当該乳房メッシュインプラントは袋状部により弾性復元力が付与されるもので

However, the breast mesh implant is provided with an elastic restoring force by the bag-like portion, but when the bag-like portion is a biodegradable (absorbable) material, the bag-like portion disappears with time. Therefore, the elastic restoring force cannot be maintained for a long time. In order to retain the natural breast bulge of the breast for a long period of time by applying an elastic restoring force, the bag-like portion needs to be made of a non-biodegradable (non-absorbable) material. In the examples of Patent Documents 1 and 2, non-biodegradable (
Non-absorbable) polypropylene mesh sheets are recommended.

このように、当該乳房メッシュインプラントは基本的に生体内で吸収されずに残るもの
であるため、生体にとっては異物であり、それに伴う感染やアレルギー等の問題が生じる
可能性があった。
As described above, since the breast mesh implant basically remains without being absorbed in the living body, it is a foreign body for the living body, which may cause problems such as infection and allergy.

This member serves as a scaffold for regenerating three-dimensional adipose tissue after implantation. Since the sponge has a structure accommodated in the porous body, the peripheral adipose tissue can easily enter the sponge through the hole, and supply sufficient nutrients to the adipose tissue adhered to the sponge. Is possible. Further, the adipose tissue can be regenerated with a sponge while maintaining the shape retaining property of the member with the porous body. Furthermore, since it is composed entirely of biodegradable materials, it is absorbed into the living body after breast reconstruction, so that problems such as infection, allergy, and carcinogenesis do not occur. Thus, since a fat tissue can be efficiently regenerated, it is extremely useful as an implant for breast reconstruction.

Example 1
Various samples were introduced into the groin of a rat that had been seen in the breast, and the degree of regeneration of adipose tissue after a certain period was evaluated.
(1) Preparation of sample Mesh sheet made of polylactic acid (PLLA) (made with 0.2-0.25 mm thread,
Collagen sponge (product name: Pernac, with mesh opening 1x1mm-2x2mm)
(Smith & Nephew Management Co., Ltd.) was coated to produce an elliptical member A. The longest width of the member A was 2 cm, and the shortest width was 1 cm. On the other hand, an elliptical member B made of only a polylactic acid (PLLA) mesh was produced in the same manner as described above except that no collagen sponge was used.
(2) Experimental procedure Without using cells and growth factors, the members A and B obtained above were embedded in the groin of the rat, and the degree of regeneration of adipose tissue was evaluated. Member A was embedded in the left and right inguinal parts of the rat, and member B was embedded in the right and left inguinal parts of another rat, and the surroundings (fatty fascia and muscle) were lightly fixed with nylon. . The fat fascia and muscle were sutured with nylon.
(3) Evaluation method and results After embedding in the inguinal region of the rat, adipose tissue containing each member after 3 months and 6 months was collected. The cross section of the portion corresponding to the mesh in the tissue was cut out, and the area inside the member and the area of fat inside the member in the cross section were measured (see FIG. 4). The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2. The area inside the part and the area of fat inside the part are determined by the image integration software NIS-Elemen.
It was measured using ts D (version 2,20: manufactured by Nikon Corporation).

表1より、埋入後3ヶ月後において、コラーゲンスポンジがポリ乳酸のメッシュで被覆
されてなる部材Aは、ポリ乳酸のメッシュのみからなる部材Bに比べて、部材内部の面積
が大きく、さらに6ヶ月経過後は更に面積が増大している。これは、部材Aのスポンジを
収容したメッシュでは、埋入後でも形状が十分に保持されていることを示すものである。
From Table 1, after 3 months of implantation, the member A in which the collagen sponge is coated with the polylactic acid mesh has a larger area inside the member than the member B made of only the polylactic acid mesh. After a month, the area has further increased. This indicates that the shape of the mesh containing the sponge of member A is sufficiently retained even after embedding.

また、表2より、埋入後3ヶ月後において、部材Aは部材Bに比べて、部材内部の脂肪
の面積が顕著に大きくなり、しかも6ヶ月経過後は、3倍近く脂肪面積が増大しているこ
とが分かる。これは、部材Aの内部に収容されたコラーゲンスポンジが、部材Bと比べて
、脂肪組織を効率的に再生出来ていることを示すものである。
Also, from Table 2, after 3 months from the implantation, member A has a significantly larger fat area inside member than member B, and after 6 months, the fat area increases nearly three times. I understand that This indicates that the collagen sponge housed in the member A can regenerate the adipose tissue more efficiently than the member B.

これらの結果より、本発明の部材Aは、乳房の欠損部に脂肪組織を再生させて乳房を再
建するための部材として有用であることが分かった。
From these results, it was found that the member A of the present invention is useful as a member for reconstructing the breast by regenerating the adipose tissue in the defective part of the breast.

The member for reconstructing the adipose tissue of the breast according to the present invention can be obtained by efficiently regenerating the adipose tissue by embedding the member of the present invention in the affected part after partially excising the breast as a surgical treatment for breast cancer. Can be rebuilt.
