| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We try to develop a molecular targeted anti-cancer drug for glioblastoma, which is the most malignant and difficult for treatment. In the brain, tumor cells are protected by blood brain barrier (BBB) that inhibiting transmission of anti-cancer drugs. First, we developed a peptide probe by a method of phage display, which selectively entered into tumor cells and could pass-through BBB in vivo. The proto-type of anti-cancer agent of ours was made by simply conjugated an anticancer drug to the peptide probe, which did not show any effect to the cancer cells. Possible mechanism of this would be that the tumor cells must discharge or break down the agent via endocytosis-endosome mechanism. To overcome, we added pH-dependent membrane active peptide (PMAPs) to the molecular targeted anti-cancer drug and confirmed the effect of tumor shrinkage in PDX model mouse on MRI.
