Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Blockade of constitutive activation of ERK-mitogen activated protein kinase(MAPK) pathway in cancer cells increases the sensitivity of cells for new anticancer and epigenetic drug, histone deacetylase inhibitor(HDACi), however, the molecular mechanism which prescribes its sensitivity is now, unclear. In two model cells, 3T3-Raf-ER cells (normal cell model) and LK2-Raf-ER cells (cancer cell model) in which activation of ERK-MAPK pathway is induced by estradiol, proapoptotic factor Bim was very important to determine the HDACi-sensitivity in both cells. Bim could be a biomarker for determining HDACi-sensitivity. Next, we are planning to analyze the downstream kinase MNK as a new molecular target.
