| Research Abstract |
In the current study, we investigate the relationship between genetic mutation and sensitivity against anti-cancer drug in pancreatic cancer. We analyze the genetic mutation of RUNX3 as well as p53 and Rb. RUNX3 expression was analyzed by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. Pancreatic cancer cell line QGP-1 express RUNX3, while KP-1 and KP-3 did not express RUNX3. We introduce RUNX3 cDNA into KP-1 and KP-3. RUNX3 introduction resulted in reduction of cell number by 〜20%. Apoptosis was evaluated by FACS using anti-Annexin V antibody. RUNX3 introduced cells showed 〜30% increase of apoptosis. On the other hand RUNX3 knockdown using RNAi resulted in increment of cell proliferative activity. As for k-ras mutation, k-ras mutation also increased cell proliferative activity in pancreatic cancer. We also analyzed the relationship between k-ras mutation and effectiveness of anti-cancer drugs (gemcitabine, gemcitabine-cisplatin). K-ras mutation did not have significant effect on patient survival treated with gemcitabine or gemcitabine-cisplatin.
In conclusion, #1 genetic mutation in k-ras and/or RUNX3 increased malignantpotential of pancreatic cancer. #2 k-ras mutation did not affect the sensitivity against anti-cancer drug in pancreatic cancer.
