Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, first, we found transcriptional regulation of BMCC1 mediated by E2F1 in neuroblastoma cells. Then, we clarified a functional role of BMCC1 in apoptosis promotion of neuroblastoma cells. Furthermore, we found that reduced expression of BMCC1 may become malignant neuroblastoma by abrogating DNA damage repair and apoptosis. Molecular functions of BMCC1 uncovered in this study provide clues for defining the underlying molecular mechanism(s) that determine whether the course of neuroblastoma will be favorable or unfavorable. These results were presented at several academic conferences and also reported as academic papers (Tatsumi et al., CDDIS, 2015; Islam and Tatsumi et al., BBRC, 2016).
