Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, we analyzed the expression of GPR15 in various cell lines and the antitumor effect of rTM. the expression level of GPR15 was different among carcinomas, and the appearance of antitumor effect of rTM was different among carcinomas. The relationship between the direct antitumor effect of rTM and GPR15 is a subject for further study.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は難治性の消化器癌に対する新たなバイオマーカーとなりうるGPR15に着目した研究である。消化器癌は化学療法への抵抗性を示した際には分子標的薬や免疫チェックポイント阻害剤による新たな治療法が必要となるが、本研究においては第四の治療標的を見出す研究である。そのため、本研究で得られる成果は癌治療の発展における重要な位置付けとなりうる。
