Research Abstract

分子標的薬の抗腫瘍効果規定因子の決定と分子標的薬の作用機序を明らかにする、臨床試験において標的分子の発現測定をおこない、ヒトの体内で標的とする分子に作用しているか否かを明らかにする目的で以下の研究を実施した。
I.分子標的薬(ファルネシルトランスフェラーゼ阻害剤等)の投与をうけた患者の末梢血単核球の遺伝子発現変動解析により分子標的薬の評価を行った。機能的に類推可能な既知遺伝子から構成するcDNAフィルターアレイを作成し、遺伝子発現解析を行った。
同薬剤投与前後の患者末梢血単核球の遺伝子発現変動を比較検討することで、本剤がヒトの体内で適切と標的(Ras関連遺伝子、Rhoファミリー関連遺伝子)に容量依存的に作用していること、また選択した遺伝子がサロゲート遺伝子となる可能性が示された。
II.分子標的薬(EGFR特異的チロシンキナーゼ阻害剤ZD1839)の抗腫瘍効果規定因子の検討を、ヒト非小細胞肺癌株(高感受性および低感受性株)を用いておこなった。EGFR発現量およびその自己リン酸化に加えて、AKTシグナルとMAPKカスケードのバランスがEGFR特異的チロシンキナーゼ阻害剤の感受性・耐性を左右する要因として明らかになった。また、感受性株においては、ZD1839接触によるカスペース3、9の活性化とアポトーシス誘導がおこり、AKT、MAPKカスケードを通じたアポトーシスの経路が抗腫瘍効果発現の一因子であると示された。
