記事 : 「New Vaccine Created to Help Smokers Stop Smoking」
元喫煙者として、ワクチンで禁煙できるのであれば素晴らしいと思いますが、実際は未だネズミでの実験でしかなく、人体に使うには未だ未だ研究が必要な様です。
又、将来生まれてくる子供がタバコを吸わない様、妊婦さんへのワクチン投与も視野に入っているようです。それはそれで何か怖いですが。。。
A new vaccine that will help smokers deal with the addictive effects of nicotine in cigarettes has been developed by researchers in New York’s Weill Cornell Medical Center.
The vaccine contains genetically engineered “nicotine antibodies." Antibodies are molecules that attach themselves to harmful substances in the body. Antibodies then destroy the harmful substances or make them harmless.
The vaccine carries nicotine antibodies directly to the liver, where the antibodies genetically combine with liver cells, causing liver cells to start producing other nicotine antibodies of their own. In other words, the liver is used as a factory for making more nicotine antibodies. These antibodies search for nicotine molecules in the blood and destroy them before they reach the smoker’s brain or heart. As such, smokers would not feel enjoyment from smoking.
Other kinds of treatments have been designed to help smokers kick the habit; but none of the previous treatments offer lifetime protection against nicotine’s addictive effects.
Available nicotine vaccines and medicines are expensive because their effects are temporary, meaning patients have to keep getting injections or keep buying medication. Moreover, the treatments are not always effective.
So far, the new vaccine has only been tested on mice and more tests are needed before it will be available for humans.
Professor Ronald Crystal, the chairman of Genetic Medicine in Weill Cornell Medical Center, believes the vaccine may someday be used by parents who wish to prevent their children from getting into the smoking habit.
Doctors, however, warn that people should try other treatments first before getting a vaccine that causes big genetic changes to the body.
明日も頑張ります!!
