Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to establish an animal model of pancreatic cancer utilizing the pancreas-targeted hydrodynamic gene delivery of human oncogenes in rats. To date, we have successfully developed a novel rat pancreatic cancer model safely and efficiently by optimizing gene delivery parameters, gene concentrations, and gene combinations in order to create efficiently a pancreatic cancer model. Following this development, we are clarifying the molecular mechanism of this pancreatic cancer model to identify the therapeutic target.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
膵臓選択的なハイドロダイナミック遺伝子導入法により膵癌モデルラットを確立した。その簡便性と再現性から、本モデルの分子生物学的な解析に基づき、ヒト膵癌の治療標的決定のための検討が可能になり、膵癌の早期診断法、新規治療法の開発に寄与すると考える。さらに、今まで難治であった膵癌の診断・治療に大きな恩恵を与え、膵癌の予後改善につながると考える。
