| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation by next-generation sequencing for 16 canine somatic tissues, 28 malignant melanomas with normal mucosae, and 12 hepatocellular carcinomas with normal liver cells with or without steroid treatment were performed to obtain quantitative DNA methylation levels of 100,000-150,000 CpG sites in the dog genome.
We found that the normal tissue types were clearly defined by principal component analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis with DNA methylome. DNA methylation patterns were clearly different between malignant melanoma and normal mucosae. Same is true between HCC and normal liver cells. These findings suggest molecular subtypes defined by aberrant DNA methylation occurred in these tumor patients, which have never been elucidated in the clinical settings.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
これまで研究されてきたイヌの腫瘍疾患におけるDNAメチル化の異常は、かなり局所的な解析によるものにとどまっていたが、本研究によってその解析範囲が大幅に改善されたことで広範な異常が存在することが明らかとなり、イヌの腫瘍疾患における分子生物学的なメカニズムの理解が刷新されたことは学術的意義が深い。
また本研究の成果による、獣医診療におけるバイオマーカー樹立や新規治療法の策定などの臨床応用への可能性が示唆された点においては、コンパニオンアニマルとしてのイヌ、およびともに暮らす人間のより良い暮らしといった社会的意義につながる。
