| Research Abstract |
mTOR inhibitor (Rapamycin) induced significant tumor growth inhibitory effect on mouse osteosarcoma cell line (LM8) by in vitro study as WB assay, WST assay, microscopic analysis and FACS analysis. Additive effect was observed by combining another anticancer agent (gemcitabine). mTOR inhibitor (rapamycin) induced the growth inhibition of primary tumor and suppression of lung metastasis in in vivo experiments using the osteosarcoma (LM8) tumor-bearing mouse model transplanted to C3H mice. Furthermore, same additive effect as in vitro study with the combination anti-cancer agent (gemcitabine) were observed in this mouse model study.
