Outline of Final Research Achievements

Lung cancer is the top of cancer mortality in Japan. Recently, particle beam therapy (proton or carbon ion beam) is used as one of the most advanced cancer treatments. To elucidate the side effects (pulmonary fibrosis, etc.) and to avoid human experimentation, we established PDX (Patient-Derived Xenograft) of human normal lung tissue in Super-SCID mice.
Human normal lung tissues transplanted to Super-SCID mice were irradiated with carbon ion beam (1Gy, 2Gy). After removal two weeks after irradiation, we analyzed gene expression. More than 4-fold expression change in gene probes increased dose-dependently. The number of gene probes common for both doses which decreased by more than 4-fold expression were 22 and the increased were 6.
