| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to prove the hypothesis that HMOCC-1, an ovarian cancer-specific human monoclonal antibody, inhibits adhesion of MUC16 on the surface of ovarian cancer to MSLN protein on the surface of normal peritoneum. This study revealed that the inhibitory effect of HMOCC-1 antibody against the adhesion of ovarian cancer cells to normal peritoneal cells is not caused through inhibition of binding of MSLN and MUC16, which suggests a possibility that HMOCC-1 antibody may function through the other molecular mechanisms. The study will be required further studies to define the molecular mechanisms of the HMOCC-1 function against ovarian cancer peritoneal metastasis.
