| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Regulation of relapse in oral cancer is currently significance for the improvement of prognosis. We previously found that recruitment of bone marrow-derived CD11b positive M2 macrophage contributed to recurrence after radiation. Although M2 macrophage is reported its pro-tumorigenic activities in vitro, the role and molecular mechanism of M2 macrophage in tumor microenvironment in the process of recurrence is not known yet. Thus, the subject of this study was to elucidate the role of M2 macrophage in relapse of oral cancer using organoid, in which the tumor microenvironment are closely re-organaized in vitro. We utilized several different types of cells including cancer, endothelial, stroma, and monocytes for establishment of oral cancer organoid. We found that the resistance against chemo drugs was seen in 3D-organoid compared to either oral cancer cells alone or 2D-cocultured cells. M2 macrophage-secreting proteins contributed angiogenesis in vitro assay.
