Outline of Final Research Achievements

We found that transcriptional factor, recombination signal binding protein for immunoglobulin-kappa-J region (RBPJ) and transcriptional coactivator, mastermind like-3 (MAML3) contribute to the mechanism of upregulation of Smootnened (SMO) transcription under hypoxia, and that inhibition of RBPJ/MAML3 signaling suppress the inducing of malignant phenotype such as proliferation, invasion and tumorigenesis in pancreatic cancer.
