Outline of Final Research Achievements

Intraperitoneal (IP) administration of nanomicellar PTX (NK105) significantly reduced peritoneal tumors than conventional PTX formulation with similar systemic toxic effects, suggesting the clinical usefulness of IP-NK105. Peritoneal nodules are covered with fibrous capsule containing many CD31(+) microvessels both in human and mice. After IP-PTX, however, the peripheral vessels were greatly reduced in number with luminal obstruction. These findings strongly suggest that the remarkable efficacy of IP-PTX is partly dependent on the destruction of peripheral tumor vessels. CD90(+) cells in human peritoneum vigorously grew in culture and express CAF characteristics by TGF-b, and IP co-injection with MKN45 significantly enhanced peritoneal metastasis in nude mice. The CD90(+) cells were engrafted in metastatic nodules mainly at the fibrous area. Oral administration of Dasatinib significantly inhibited the development of peritoneal metastasis of MKN45 with reduced fibrillar formation.
