Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Modification of DNA are found in the process of malignant transformation from normal cells in many cancers. If this phenomenon in the regulatory site of the tumor suppressor gene occurs, it is believed that malignant transformation is likely to occur. In the present study, the chemical substance of the food component to cause the re-expression and modification of the tumor suppressor gene was to explore, but a new material was not found. Though the benign tumor of a model mouse of the multi-stage carcinogenesis was used, it was not observed these effect.
