| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to investigate the role of nuclear receptor CAR (constitutive androstane receptor) in the pathogenesis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Thioacetamide (TAA) was administered to CAR knockout and wild-type mice to create a chemical carcinogenic model of cholangiocarcinoma. Cholangiocarcinoma developed after 24-weeks TAA administration. However, there were no significant differences between the two groups. In the chemical carcinogenesis model of hepatocellular carcinoma, it has been reported that carcinogenesis is significantly suppressed in CAR knockout mice. However, it is not suppressed in the TAA-induced cholangiocarcinoma model used in this study.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
肝細胞癌（肝細胞由来）の化学発癌モデルでは、核内レセプターCARの発癌への関与が報告されている。同様に肝臓に発生し、胆管細胞由来の肝内胆管癌においてCARの関与の有無を検討した。Thioacetamide (TAA) による胆管癌モデルで検討したが、CARの関与は明らかでなかった。胆管癌モデルにおいてCARの関与の有無を検討したことは、胆管癌及びCARの病態生理を考える上で意義があったと考える。
