| Research Abstract |
Leukoplakia and lichen planus in oral cavity are premalignant lesions, which are high rate recurrence in a long term, and the way of treatment has not established. The high rate of recurrence was suggested that the expression of angiogenesis factor. We investigated antitumor effect by NPe6 mediated PDT, inhibited the expression of angiogenesis factor.
As a result, we identified the gene and protein that contributes neoangiogenesis, and inhibited cell proliferation, migration, lumen formation.
