Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to identify the position of cancer stem cells responsible for recurrence after irradiation. For this purpose, we established an oral cancer cell line expressing the Fucci probes (a cell cycle visualizing system) or proteasome-sensor probes (a cancer stem cell-visualizing system). After making spheroids, we found that the outer layer was green and inner region was red, and the latter was also proteasome-sensor positive. After irradiation, the outer layer almost became green and increased in its intensity. Thereafter, the outer turned to red and died, and the inner red cells became green with thickness of ~50μm. These results indicate that cancer stem cells exist in inner region and exhibit radioresitance, and the inner cells are recruited to proliferating state when growth conditions are given.
