Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Chronic inflammation-related inflammatory microenvironment is a risk factor in gastric cancer development. In this study, we showed the promoting effect of inflammatory microenvironment, such as stromal fibroblast and macrophage, in gastric cancer progression. Moreover, we confirmed that a tumor-specific replication-competent oncolytic adenovirus OBP-702 that induces tumor suppressor p53 gene had a therapeutic potential to induce profound anti-tumor effect against intraperitoneal metastasis of gastric cancer.
