Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed immunohistochemical staining mainly with antibodies against cleaved caspase-3 (CC3), mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL), and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3B (LC3B), which are specific markers of apoptosis, necroptosis, and autophagy, respectively. Our results suggested that there were differences in the induction of apoptosis, autophagy and necroptosis due to the difference in tissue type (adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, small cell carcinoma) in lung cancer. In differentiated type gastric cancer, CC3 expression was correlated with LC3B expression (r = 0.496, P < 0.05). Apoptosis and autophagy could be cooperatively controlled in differentiated gastric cancer. Further studies on different cases will be necessary to clarify the cell death pathway and the interactions between cell death factors.
