Outline of Final Research Achievements |
TPX2 was highly expressed in pancreatic cancer cell lines (PANC1 and KLM1) and colon cancer cell lines (DLD1 and HCT15). A TPX2 siRNA induced the TPX2 suppression and MCP1 overexpression in PANC1 and KLM1 cells. The culture medium of TPX2 siRNA-transfected pancreatic cancer cells showed an inhibitory effect on the proliferation and invasion of cancer cells. Factors secreted by TPX2 siRNA-transfected pancreatic cancer cells may cause a secondary effect on pancreatic cancer. Pre-exposure to 5-FU significantly enhanced its anticancer effect on the proliferation of KLM1, KP4 and DLD1 cells. However, there were no significant differences in the motility and invasion between cells that were and were not pre-exposed to 5-FU. The secondary effect was not simple and uniform in terms of cancer cell damage. Further investigations will be required for clinical applications. However, our data indicate the potential for a new therapy using TPX2 siRNA to improve the cancer prognosis.
