| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To establish foundation of molecular-targeted therapy for small animal tumours, we sought canine tumour-derived cell lines that have “oncogene addiction” and analysed signalling pathway(s) on which they depend. A kinase inhibitor, dasatinib, was found to have potent growth inhibitory activity against some histiocytic sarcoma (HS) lines in vitro and in vivo. We then performed kinome analysis using HS lines and found that 14-3-3 protein gamma is constitutively activated in some HS lines that are sensitive to dasatinib. Because 14-3-3 protein gamma does not have kinase activity, it was considered that dasatinib targeted kinase in upper JNK pathway. From these findings, dasatinib could be a potential therapeutic drug for certain HS cases whose tumour cells have constitutively phosphorylated 14-3-3 protein gamma.
