| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Polyacrylic acid (PAA)-titanium peroxide nanoparticles (PAA-TiOxNPs) which were synthesized from commercial TiO2 nanoparticles and modified with PAA showed a distinct ability to enhance radiation effects in comparison to gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). PAA-TiOxNPs showed more tumor growth inhibition after intra-tumoral injection into MIAPaCa-2 human pancreatic cancer cells xenografted nude mice combined with by 5 Gy irradiation. PAA-TiOxNPs produces its radiosensitizing effects through the production of ROS (reactive oxygen species) mainly H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide). Absorption to mesenchymal stem cell were not observed.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
過酸化チタンナノ粒子は金ナノ粒子と比較して、ROSの産生などの観点から、難治癌に対する治療戦略の中でより有望な候補物質といえる。動物実験では、腫瘍増殖抑制効果が認められたが、今後前臨床試験や臨床試験への移行するためには、ナノ粒子の均一な製造方法や表面修飾方法を更に検討していく必要があると思われる。
