Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we performed salivary metabolome analysis to search for breast cancer specific and highly reliable biomarker. We investigate differential metabolites between breast cancer bearing mice and control mice, and found several candidate markers. In addition, we performed tracer experiments with 13C-glucose, and detected marker candidates highly reproducibly in tissues such as mammary glands, salivary glands, and blood. These results suggested that salivary metabolome analysis may be useful to detect cancer-specific metabolites.
