Outline of Final Research Achievements

Cdh1 was suppressed by siRNA in representative two colon cancer cell line, Caco2 and HCT116. RNA was extracted from these cells and control cells respectively. cDNA array analysis was performed and 4891 genes which expression were changed more than one and a half times were extracted.Furthermore, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) enables to detect 17 candidates genes which expression were significantly changed by Cdh1 siRNA.
Among these 17 genes, Wnt signaling was extracted as especially changed gene set. From these results, it was suggested that Cdh1 had a putative roll for control the cell cytoskeleton and motility via Wnt signal pathway in colon cancer.
