Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We could not detect any difference of prognosis or progression free survival between CCR5 expression is present or not in the resected specimens of primary tumors of melanoma patients treated in our hospital. To detect the factor for augmentation of CCR5 expression, we focused on inflammatory cytokines and checked IL-17A and TNF-α in the melanoma patients' serum. Serum IL-17A level of patient in stage 4 of CCR5 positive group is higher than negative group. However, there were no difference between positive or negative in TNF-α level in the melanoma patients' serum.
