Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we aimed to clarify the molecular mechanism of OSCC onset associated with activation of JAK-STAT signal transduction system. Currently, we performed integrated genome analysis combining high-density SNP array analysis and comprehensive gene expression analysis, and isolate cancer gene and tumor suppressor gene specific to OSCC, AIM2 and IFI6 have been identified as interferon-inducible gene group (ISG) so far, and we have further increased the number of pecimens and performed genome analysis.
In addition, we are also studying cell proliferation, adhesion ability, apoptotic ability and introduction of shRNA expression vector into OSCC cell line for the functional analysis of BST2, which is considered to contribute to onset of OSCC.
