Research Abstract |
It is be clearly essential to kill the cancer stem cell for the radical cure of cancer. Especially, It is important to develop the PET imaging technology for the cancer stem cell, and the specific cell death technology for cancer stem cell. Several researchers reported that CD44 molecules overexpressed with a variety of cancer stem cells. We tried the development of PET imaging technology and specific cell death technology for CD44 overexpressed-cancer stem cell. As a result, the CD44 molecules were not suitable for target molecules of PET imaging. Because, there were widely expressed the normal tissue. For the radical cure of cancer, it is required the more specific marker for cancer stem cell.
