Research Abstract |
To induce efficient anti-proliferative effect of interferon (IFN) on hepatocellular carcinoma cells, we performed the following investigation : 1) combination of other drugs with IFN, 2) application of new drug delivery system, and 3) determination and functional analysis of the molecules closely related with IFN-mediated apoptosis induction. As a result, combination of IFN with anti-angiogenesis drug was effective to a certain extent. New drug delivery system worked to some extent and may be more effective after some improvement. XAF-1 and TRAIL were closely related with the induction of apoptosis and the regulation of XAF-1 and TRAIL will modify the anti-proliferative effect of IFN.
