| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, translocation mechanism of CKAP4, a novel receptor of secreted protein DKK1, to exosome was analyzed. CKAP4 was specifically secreted with exosome from cancer cell lines. In addition, the amounts of CKAP4 on exosome were proportional to those of CKAP4 on the cell surface membrane. The secretion of CKAP4- containing exosome was mediated by DKK1- and Clathrin- dependent endocytosis rotes. These results suggest that CKAP4, which functions as a receptor of DKK1 on the cell surface membrane of cancer cells, is translocated to exosome, and CKAP4 in exosome may be a novel tumor marker.
