Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Combined type of small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) has both small cell cancer and non-small cell carcinoma components such as adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, which are positive for NOTCH1 and negative for INSM1, one of neuroendocrine transcription factor. Mechanisims of NOTCH1 expression in the process of genesis of the combined type SCLC could be epigenetically regulated. NOTCH1-negative classical SCLC cell lines expressed NOTCH1 after trichostatin A treatment, and Chip assay showed that level of acetylated histone H3 surrounding Notch1 promoter region was low in them. Taken together, genesis of combined type SCLC requires NOTCH expression, which could be regulated by histone modification.
