| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Oral squamous cell carcinoma frequently invade the bone of mandible and maxilla and the bone invasion of oral cancer is a critical event that determines the patient poor prognosis. However, molecular mechanisms which regulate bone invasion are not fully understood. Here, we have established novel mouse model which recapitulates the bone invasion of oral squamous cell carcinoma. This model enables the dynamic imaging of bone invasion with high resolution. This mouse model will be a useful tool to understand the mechanism underlying bone invasion and contribute to the development therapeutic reagent for the treatment of bone invasion.
