| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Since malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) easily spreads throughout the intrathoracic pleural cavity, and mostly shows resistance to the ordinary chemotherapy, it still one of the most aggressive disease among neoplastic diseases. Alost all MPM cells have been shown to express urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR). Recently, we demonstrated the potential of our new and powerful recombinant Sendai virus (rSeV), which shows uPAR-specific cell-to-cell fusion activity (named “BioKnife”). In the present study, we examined the tumor cell-killing mechanism via BioKnife more precisely to obtain the most sufficient effect on treating MPM that is characterized by frequent uPAR expression in a clinical setting.
