Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We analyzed intrinsic properties of a clone established form dormant bone marrow-disseminated tumor cells (BM-DTC) using mouse xenograft model. Then, we found that the dormant BM-DTC clone had a gene expression signature distinct from lung metastasis- and inoculation site-derived clones. Furthermore, our DNA barcoding assay indicated that dormant BM-DTC consisted of specific populations, and we identified a clone which would preferentially occupy dormant BM-DTC.
