Outline of Final Research Achievements

We established a drug-resistant cell line DTP (non-proliferative immediately after drug treatment), DTEP (cell proliferation resumed), DTEP-r (drug-sensitive after a long culture without drug), starting with PC9 cells, derived from human non-small cell lung cancer, using anticancer drug, gefitinib. We performed RNA-seq (mRNA and total RNA) for each cell line, and identified ncRNA producing gene loci showing unique expression balances between poly(A)+RNA and total RNA. We also obtained differential expression profiles of several genes among cell types, which suggested the phenotypic differences among cell types were due to epigenetic changes.
