Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although aPKClambda/iota (aPKC)is a cell polarity-regulating factor, it has been known to be highly expressed in various cancer cells. We aimed to elucidates the roles of aPKC in development and progression of cancers. In this research, we demonstrated the facts as follows; 1) aPKC is highly expressed in uterine cervical cancer and its precursor, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Additionally, aPKC shows nuclear accumulation along with progression. 2) Cultured normal prostatic cells showed increased proliferation and motility, when aPKC gene is transfected, demonstrating that aPKC has a role in early stage of prostatic carcinogenesis. 3) Breast cancers coexpressiong aPKC, its binding protein p62 and glyoxalase I (GLOI) shows more unfavorable. Combined treatment of inhibitors of aPKC and GLOI effectively suppressed growth of co-expressing breast cancer cells in vitro. These indicated relationship between aPKC signaling and glucose metabolism in breast cancer.
