Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Invadopodia in invasive cancer cells are actin-enriched structures with an ability to degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) and play crucial roles in invasion and metastasis. A formation of functional invadopodia may require a crosstalk between microtubules and actin filaments, but the molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. In addition, regulatory mechanisms of the polarized transport of metalloproteinases degrading ECM at invadopodia remain elusive. In this study, we have focused on the microtubule-associated protein (MAP) that is associated with the crosstalk between microtubules and actin filaments and the SNARE proteins that function in the transport of metalloproteinases to invadopodia and revealed a part of the molecular mechanisms of invadopodia formation followed by cancer metastasis.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
がんによる死因の90%は、がん細胞の浸潤・転移が関係している。乳がんにおいても、転移の無い場合の5年生存率は99%だが、転移すると27%に低下する。本研究は、悪性度の高い乳がん細胞の浸潤転移に関わる機構の一端を分子レベルで解明したものであり、学術的な意義にとどまらず、新規の診断・治療標的として利用できる可能性も秘めている。
