| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We identified cancer stem-like cells (CSLC) in human ovarian cancer cell line A2780 by stem cell culture methods. The expression of polycomb group (PcG), which are epigenetic effector, showed no difference between parental A2780 and CSLC. Although cancer stem cells show the resistance to chemotherapeutic agent, A2780 CSLC did not have the ability of cisplatin resistance. Honeycomb films (3D porous scaffold) fabricated from various biodegradable polymers can amplify the cancer stem cells. Honeycomb-patterned polyurethane films inhibited cell proliferation compared with control tissue culture dish in ovarian cancer cells, suggesting that honeycomb films have the possibility of inducing cancer cell to cancer stem cell.
