| Research Abstract |
It has become clear in recent years that peritoneal metastasis takes place as the results of a multistep process involving attachment, invasion, proliferation, and angiogenesis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the suppressive effect of MMP inhibitor and VEGF inhibitor as molecular targeting therapy on peritoneal dissemination.
We established a high-potential peritoneal metastasis cell line (MKN-45P), using the gastric cancer cell line MKN-45, and developed a peritoneal metastasis model in nude mice. The concentration of IL-6, IL-8, MMP-2 and VEGF on MKN-45 was significantly higher than those on MKN-45. Immunohistochemical staining for VEGF and MMP-2 was performed of slides of surgical specimens from patients with Stage II gastric cancer with serosal invasion. VEGF was correlated with peritoneal metastasis from gastric cancer, and that VEGF was a useful indicator of peritoneal recurrence. On in vivo study using peritoneal metastasis model, the frequency of hydronephrosis, mitosis index and survival rate of MMP inhibitor or VEGF inhibitor administrated group were significantly higher than those of control group, and ascites volume of VEGF administrated group was significantly higher than that of control group. These results suggested, these drugs, especially VEGF inhibitor were useful molecular targeting therapy for peritoneal dissemination.
