| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although methotrexate has been widely used for medical treatment of ectopic pregnancy, the development of more effective medical treatment with less adverse effects is anticipated. In this study, we performed DNA microarray analyses to find cell signaling pathway important for growth of villous tissues. Using villous tissue explants and an animal model for ectopic pregnancy, we evaluated their potential as candidates for molecular targeting therapy. We could find 3 targets with high potentials for development of novel medical therapies for ectopic pregnancy.
