Research Abstract |
It is unknown for the molecular mechanism of spontaneous regression of neuroblastoma(NB). I have previously demonstrated that the cell death mediated by accumulation of LAPTM5(lysosomeal-associated protein multispanning membrane 5) protein was closely associated with tumor regression of NBs. With the support of this grant, I clarified the mechanism of transcriptional and post-translational regulation for the expression, and suggested that the dysregulation of its mechanism may LAPTM5-mediated cell death in NB cells.
