| Research Abstract |
Using an orthotopic implantation mice model in which the invasion and metastasis of oral cancer can be reproduced, we investigated the inhibitory effects of anticancer agent and fibroblast growth inhibitor on invasion and metastasis. A highly invasive and metastatic human oral squamous cell carcinoma cell line, OLC-01, was implanted into the tongue of nude mice, and cisplatin or tranilast were administered to the mice after the implantation. The effects of each drug on cancer invasion and metastasis were investigated. Tumor sizes and stromal collagen fiber volumes were significantly reduced in conbination group of cisplatin and tranilast. And tumor stromas were changed properties in conbination group. The use of anticancer agent and fibroblast growth inhibitor considering these effects may be clinically very useful.
