Outline of Final Research Achievements

A novel water-soluble complex between boron cluster carborane-kojic acid conjugate(CKA) and hydroxylpropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-betaCD) hve been prepared. It was revealed that CKA-HP-betaCD complex inhibited the metastasis of melanoma cells in vivo. It was suggested that the inhibitory ability of CKA to HIF-1alpha contributed to suppress the matastasis. Furthermore, in this study, the quantitative evaluation of the CKA’s inhibitory ability was carried out by quantitative real-time PCR in vivo. From the results of real-time PCR, CKA remarkably suppressed melanoma metastasis to the brain among other organs.
