Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, it was confirmed that the small G protein Arf6 positively regulates both tumor growth and invasion of cancer cells, and screened peptides inhibiting Arf6 activation to develop a novel anti-cancer drug. It was found that Arf6-specific GTPase-activating protein ARAP3 regulates invadopodia formation through inactivation of Arf6 in cancer cells, and that Arf6 expressed in lymphatic endothelial cells regulates tumor growth. These results demonstrate that Arf6 regulates both tumor growth and invasion/metastasis of cancer cells, and indicate that Arf6 is a candidate for developing a novel anti-cancer drug. When peptides inhibiting Arf6 activation were screened using the peptide library with about 35 amino acid residues, one peptide specifically inhibited Arf6 activation. Thus, a drug lead peptide for a novel anti-cancer drug development was successfully found.
