| Research Abstract |
We have conducted investigations of chemoprevention of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by retionoids and confirmed the clinical effects of acyclic retionid on second primary hepatocarcinogenesis. Acyclic retinoid prevents hepatocarcinogenesis by eradicating premalignant and latent malignant clones of transformed cells from the liver. We demonstrate the mechanism of this clonal deletion at the cellular level. We revealed that acyclic retinoid not only binds to nuclear receptors, but also affects membrane receptors. Acyclic retinoid enhanced anti-tumor effects of not only interferon (IFN)-β but also IFN-α, however, natural retinoic acid (all-trans and 9-cis retinoic acid) failed to exert such effect. This combination effect was likely due to enhanced apoptosis induction as characterized by DNA fragmentation and chromatin condensation. Pretreatment of the HCC cells with acyclic retinoid followed by IFN-β, but not the converse, induced such cytotoxic effect. Acyclic retinoid increased the expression of type 1 IFN receptor (IFNR) and inclusion with anti-type 1 IFNR antibody abolished the synergistic growth suppression by the combination.
The hospital information system brings substantial benefits to clinical study. We also demonstrate that the hospital information system is useful for translational study of cancer chemoprevention.
We evaluate these results as very important to establish cancer chemoprevention with retionids and to develop novel cancer chemopreventive agents.
