| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
While long-term culture of primary gastric organoids with serum-free media was difficult at first, we were finally able to conduct long-term culture by optimization of medium composition. We then conducted lentiviral gene transduction into these gastric organoids and inoculated transduced organoids into dorsal skin of nude mice to examine tumorigenicity of frequently mutated genes in human gastric cancer (TP53, CDH1 and KRAS). Specifically, we cultured gastric cells isolated from conditional knockout and knock-in mice for Trp53 and mutant Kras, respectively, and transduced gastric organoids with Cre-recombinase to induce Trp53 deletion and/or Kras activation. Furthermore, we induced Cdh1 suppression by shRNA. Reconstitution of certain combinations of genetic alterations induced histologically different tumors. In conclusion, we here demonstrated that gastric organoids can be transformed by in vitro gene transduction.
