Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We used reconbinant adenovirus vector(Ad-NBS1) introduced mutant type of NBS1 protein which is associated with double strand breaks(DSB) repair of DNA. We confirmed good introduction rate of Ad-NBS1 for tumor cells , significant antitumor effect of Ad-NBS1, and obvious sensitization in using with cisplatin in vitro. In addition, by using PARP inhibitor which suppresses the repair of single strand breaks (SSB) as well as the combination of cisplatin and Ad-NBS1, more significant sensitization of antitumor effect was observed. The increase of production in DNA repair proteins such as MRE11, NBS1 and RAD50(MRN) through a transcription factor p63 was associated with cisplatin resistant of tumor cells. However, the functional mechanism of Ad-NBS1 was not through p63, but directly suppressed MRN proteins and resulted in not working DNA repair function through γH2AX near DSB normally.
