Research Abstract |
We aimed for the treatment strategy which assumed pancreatic cancer and elucidation ofa new receptor with PST. About a new receptor, we were not able to identify an effectivereceptor except EGFR. So, we established chronic pancreatitis model mouse of two kindsof onset mechanism by controlling PSTI gene expression using gene change technology andexamined activation of a pancreas stellate cell concerned with pancreatic fibrosis, Krasgene, EGFR family gene, expression of INK4a gene. We showed an abnormal increase withKi67 positive acini cell which formed duct -like structure. Expression of a Kras gene,an EGFR family gene was already present in conditions of chronic pancreatitis, and itwas suggested that it was a transition stage to precancerosis.
