Outline of Final Research Achievements

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly malignant form of cancer, which originates from primitive neuroendocrine cells in the lung. Most recently, nSR100 (SRRM4) was highly expressed in SCLC cells correlating with enhancing tumorigenicity and resistance to apoptosis. Inhibition of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway induced nSR100 expression, whereas the specific MEK/ERK inhibitor inhibited nSR100 expression. In this study, we analyzed miRNAs relating nSR100 expression in serum from several patients and nSR100 expression in SCLC cells treated with several compounds including pathway specific inhibitors.
