Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Tumor cells create a favorable environment for their own survival and maintenance by controlling the "tumor microenvironment" that consists of surrounding immune cells. The CD47-SIRPα signaling pathway has been considered as a key molecular signal in the regulation of the tumor microenvironment, which protects cancer cells from innate immune cells such as dendritic cells and macrophages. In the present study, we clarified new regulatory mechanisms of tumor immuity by innate immune cells, which is regulated by the CD47-SIRPα system and other SIRP faminily molecules.
