Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Previously, we demonstrated that pulmonary metastasis is initiated by interaction of CS chain on tumor cells with Receptor for Advanced Glycation End-products (RAGE) on lung. The aim of this study was to develop the seeds of new drugs, oligosaccharides, and small molecular compounds. It was established the preparation of oligosaccharides by the hydrolysis of CS-E with a subcritical water microreaction system, and the screening methodology for effective oligosaccharides by inhibition of the interaction of CS-E with RAGE. These observations will provide the seeds of new anti-cancer drug.
