| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we identified a transcriptional promoter region of hST3Gal3, the enzyme related biosynthesis of glycan ligands against KLRs, and ULBP-1 (protein-ligand of NKG2D).
Furthermore, we clarified that these molecules were regulated by sorafenib and that macrophage was directly activated by sorafenib. We quantitatively determined the concentration of sorafenib in sera obtained from patients with HCC. The lack of a correlation between serum levels of sorafenib and the orally administered dose in patients suggests that it may be critical to maintaining an effective drug concentration in plasma for a long period of time.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究により進行性肝細胞がんを標的としたソラフェニブの新規作用と免疫系への影響を明らかにすることができた。この結果は、今後のNK細胞を利用した免疫療法に対して重要な知見が得られたものと考えられる。また、ソラフェニブを投与されたHCC患者におけるソラフェニブの血中濃度測定結果から、実臨床におけるソラフェニブの適正使用における血中濃度測定の重要さが示唆された。
