Outline of Final Research Achievements

We previously showed that induction of apoptosis underlies the antiproliferative effect of MET tyrosine kinase inhibitors (MET-TKIs) in gastric cancer cells with MET amplification. In the present study, we showed the molecular mechanism underlying its MET-TKIs-induced apoptosis. We also determined the prevalence, clinical features and prognosis of gastric cancer with MET amplification. We further established the MET-TKIs-resistant gastric cancer cell lines, which is important to reveal the MET-TKIs-resistant mechanisms.
