Outline of Final Research Achievements |
At first, we used 4T1 breast cancer mouse model, because mouse oral squamous cell cancer cells, SCC-7 was not able to established the tumor in mice. We observed expression of IL-13Ra2 in MDSCs isolated from 4T1 tumor moice. MDSCs, CD11b(+)Gr-1(+) sorted from mice splenocytes were highly expressing IL13Ra2 compared to CD11b(-)Gr-1(-) cells by FACS analysis. Then, we found that IL13-PE, targeting for IL-13Ra2, could directly kill MDSCs. It was suggested that targeting therapy for IL13Ra2 may be useful to eliminate not only tumor, but also MDSCs.
