| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) of pancreatic cancer travel from portal vein to hepatic vein through the liver. However, most CTCs have a low metastatic potential and are spoiled in the liver. We expect that CTCs having a high metastatic potential are more frequently seen in hepatic vein than portal vein.
We compared the characteristics of a few CTCs obtained from portal vein and hepatic vein in the patients with pancreatic cancer and suggested that CTCs present in hepatic vein had a higher metastatic potential. Furthermore, there was not a little gene expression differences between CTCs of portal vein and hepatic vein by genome analysis.

肝静脈血中に含まれる循環腫瘍細胞に特徴的な遺伝子の変化は肝転移形成能の獲得に
つながる新規のドライバー遺伝子であり、治療標的となりうる可能性が高いと考え
られます。今回の研究で明らかとなりつつある門脈血と肝静脈血の循環腫瘍細胞の遺伝子発現の差異により、膵癌肝転移機構が解明されれば、循環腫瘍細胞そのものを治療標的とする創薬基盤を創出する可能性があります。
