Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Several chemotherapeutic drugs bring advanced complications including cancer resistance by the induction of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) to cancer cells. However, the involvement of SASP in the chemotherapeutic efficacy in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells is poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the involvement of SASP in the susceptibility of OSCC cells to cisplatin. A cisplatin-resistant strain (SAS/CR2 cells) was established by continued exposure of OSCC cells, SAS cells, to low concentrations of cisplatin. As compared with the parent strain, the proliferative ability of SAS/CR2 cells was reduced. In SAS/CR2 cells, the ratio of SA-β-gal positive cells and the expression of p21 and p53 were increased. Furthermore, the levels of SASP factors in culture supernatants were higher than those of control cells. These results suggest that SASP may be involved in cisplatin-resistant of OSCC cells.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
口腔癌は抗がん剤治療により一旦腫瘍の縮小が認められても、その後、がん細胞が抗がん剤に対する耐性を獲得することで腫瘍の再増殖が生じることが多い。本研究では、口腔がん細胞の抗がん剤耐性獲得における細胞老化の関与について検討し、多くの耐性細胞は細胞老化状態に陥っており、いくつかのサイトカインやケモカイン、エクソソームといった因子の分泌を介して周囲の細胞にも抗がん剤耐性を誘導することが明らかとなった。このことから、将来的には、細胞老化制御薬やSASP因子を標的とした分子標的治療薬などを現行の抗がん剤治療に併用することで、口腔癌の抗がん剤治療効果を向上できる可能性が示唆された。
