Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aiming at the prevention of lymph node metastasis of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas, we have been started studying the participation of Sodium ion / proton exchanger 1 (NHE1) on the molecular mechanism of the metastasis, focusing on the recruitment of TGFbeta1 form the latent to the active form. We reached to the presentation of a novel and important concept in the research field of collective cell migration by the finding of the essential participation of NHE1 on the maintenance of this cell migration modality. NHE1 was assumed to participate in the maintenance of planer polarity of the cell migration, however, precise molecular mechanism is still enigmatic. Focusing on intracellular pH, we furthermore found characteristic distribution of pHi among the migrating cell collectives, i.e., higher in the intra and lower in the periphery of the collectives.
