Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the study of cancer and development of new anticancer drug, cancer stem cells (CSCs) are now considered to be important targets. In this study, we developed a drug screening system using various mouse iPS-derived cancer stem model cells (miPS-CSCs). In addition, we analyzed the gene expression profiles of miPS-CSCs, which focus on cell surface protein to use targeted drug delivery system. Comparison with normal tissue distribution, we nominated several candidate genes for tissue specific targeting.
