| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
More than half of high-risk neuroblastoma patients experience tumor relapses and less than 40% can expect a long-term survival. Intracellular vesicle transport seems to play an important role on the development of neuroblastoma cancer stem cells that are responsible for tumor relapses. In this study, we focused on DENN domain proteins, regulators of intracellular vesicle transport, and revealed that a member of DENN domain proteins is involved in the progression of neuroblastoma.
