| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the bevacizumab administered ovarian cancer mouse model, hypoxic region is formed inside the tumor, the expression of ovarian cancer stem cell marker was seen in the vicinity of hypoxic regrion. Further, we constructed spheroids of ovarian cancer as a 3-dimensional hypoxia model, in which the internal hypoxic region contained cancer stem like cells expressing stem cell factor. The internal hypoxic region was dissappeared by HIF inhibitor treatment.
In conclusion, hypoxia promotes the expansion of cancer stem like cells expressing ovarian cancer stem cell marker accompanied with the increase of stem cell factors, and HIF inhibitor would be a potential candidate for ovarian cancer therapy by inhibiting hypoxia-induced cancer stem like cells expansion.
