Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we examined the expression of a miRNA controlling Nectin-3 expression, and its significance in pancreatic ductal carcinoma. Comprehensive analysis by microarray revealed that two miRNAs were significantly upregulated in Nectin-3-knockdown cells. We confirmed that one of these miRNAs suppressed expression of Nectin-3. Furthermore, in situ hybridization in tissues resected from pancreatic cancer and pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia suggested that the Nectin-3-related miRNA is associated with shorter overall survival and carcinogenesis of pancreatic ductal carcinoma.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究では、細胞間接着分子の一つであるNectin-3の発現と制御に関わるmiRNAを膵管癌細胞で同定した。更にin situ hybridizationを用いた検討では、Nectin-3関連miRNAが膵管癌の発癌や全生存期間の短縮に関わることが示唆された。本研究の成果は、Nectin-3関連miRNAを対象とした膵管癌の新規バイオマーカーや治療法の開発への発展が期待され、学術的・社会的に意義あるものと考えられる。
