Outline of Final Research Achievements

In-situ gene therapy of cancer suppressor gene REIC / Dkk-3 against solid cancer, displayed that the synergistic effects of the "activation of the anti-cancer immunity" and "selective apoptosis of cancer cells", has been demonstrated in several animal models. In this study, REIC / Dkk-3 protein had been elucidated that the suppressive effect on the differentiation of MDSC, furthermore, the mechanism also be verify.
