Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we have tried to identify miRNAs which are involved in tumor vessel abnormality and to evaluate their roles in tumor invasion and metastasis, in order to develop novel cancer diagnostics and therapy. Endothelial cells were treated by cancer-derived exosome. Several miRNAs were upregulated and their function were analyzed. Using miRNA database, the target gene of these miRNAs were picked up and the involvement of these target molecule in tumor vessel abnormality were addressed.
