| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
One-third of lung malignancies demonstrate a proneural/neuroendocrine phenotype, and lung cancers having a proneural/neuroendocrine phenotype reveal poor prognosis. However, it has not been elucidated how a proneural/neuroendocrine differentiation is controlled in lung cancers. Therefore, we conducted molecular pathological analyses of proneural/neuroendocrine phenotype-obtaining mechanisms on lung cancer cells, focusing upon homeobox gene expression. Small cell lung cancer cells specifically expressed LHX2, LHX6, and class III/IV POU transcription factors. Among them, class III/IV POU transcription factors could induce proneural and neuroendocrine marker genes, and especially, POU3F4 and POU4F2 could effectively be transformed large cell carcinoma cells into neuroendocrine cancer cells. These findings suggested that POU3F4 and POU4F2 play crucial roles on obtaining proneural-neuroendocrine phenotype in lung cancers.
