| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied to clarify the relation of long-term replication of HCV RNA and hepatocarcinogenesis, and then obtained the following results. (1) Regarding CPB2 and BASP1 genes, whose expression levels were remarkably suppressed by long-term replication of HCV RNA, we analyzed the molecular mechanism of the gene suppression, and partly elucidated it. (2) We found that miR-22 and miR-34a were significantly suppressed by long-term replication of HCV RNA. (3) We developed the reproducible and stable method that we could prepare exosome derived from human hepatocytes, and then we applied this method to the variability analysis of exosome in the long-term culture of HCV RNA-replicating cells. (4) Using immortalized human hepatocytes, we tried the development of a new model of HCV RNA-replicating cells, and then obtained the useful knowledge for future study.
