| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We revealed IL-6 / TGF-β crosstalk induced by inflammation in biliary tract cancers. This crosstalk induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) and chemo-resistance in cancer cells and invasion front of resected specimen, via SMAD4. There was possibility that this resistance might be removed by regulation of SMAD4 or Histone. Meanwhile, this resistance induced co-resistance for the other anti-cancer drugs via DNA repair system and population of stem cells; however, radiation therapy regulated this chemo-resistance. Taken together, chemo-resistance was noted at invasion front via inflammation (crosstalk) and chemo-radiation would be effective for this invasion front and it would be helpful for advanced surgical resection.
