Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Molecular targeted agents are widely used and better survival benefits are shown for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, there are still hurdles to conquer RCC because survival cancer cells survive. The phenotype survival cancer cells look like sarcoma suggesting epithelial- mesenchymal transition. We found out that CD44 is up-regulated in the cells where Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-α induces the expression.
