| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Similarity between cancer stem cell and circulating tumor cell (CTC)/ disseminated tumor cell (DTC) was noticed in pediatric cancers. CD44, a stem cell marker candidate, was expressed on all cell lines and clinical tissue specimens including hepatoblastoma, neuroblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, and rhabdoid tumor, whereas CD44v expression was quite low. CD13 positive hepatoblastoma cell line failed to form tumors after administrated in SCID-NOD mice. Tranist downregulated the sphere formation in hepatoblastoma cell lines, and also downregulated the stem cell proliferation when administrated with CDDP, whereas did not affect the proliferation of other cell lines. Expression of stem cell candidates is modified in a different manner in each molecule even in a identical cell line. Proliferation of cancer stem cell seems to be controlled in a different mechanism in each cancer.
