Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we analyzed the protein expression profile of NKG2DL in breast cancer and malignant lymphoma, and examined the relationship with clinicopathological factors and patient survival to estimate an impact of NKG2DL modulation in antibody therapies. We showed that the clinicopathological significance of NKG2DL was different depending on molecular subtypes in breast cancer. Moreover, it was suggested that the significance of NKG2DL in rituximab-treated DLBCL might depend on cancer immunoresponse or cellular stress.
