| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In a clinical study, CEACAM1 expression suggest the benign prognostic factor in hepatoblastoma. Suppression of CEACAM1 expression in hepatblastoma cell lines reduces the effect of cancer drugs (CDDP). All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) induces the CEACAM1 expression in hepatblastomat cell lines, and combination with ATRA and CDDP enhance the effect of CDDP. CEACAM1 short isoform expression in hepatblastoma cell lines is associated with chemosensitivity.
