Outline of Final Research Achievements

Applicants found that cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), which are abundant in the cancer microenvironment, act on nearby breast cancer cells to promote cancer malignant transformation. It has been shown that activation of stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) and TGF-β autocrine signal is important for maintaining the phenotype of cancer-promoting CAFs. In addition, the applicants recently found that TGF-β receptor-binding protein endoglin (CD105) is highly expressed in breast cancer-derived CAFs by DNA microarray analysis. In this study, it was clarified that endoglin, which is the co-receptor of TGF-β, is highly expressed on CAFs, activates the TGF-β-Smad2/3 signal, and maintains myofibroblastic and cancer-promoting abilities. Furthermore, it was clarified that the expression of endoglin in CAFs is useful as a biomarker for predicting the prognosis of CAFs.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

申請者らは、独自に樹立した乳癌由来CAFsを使用し、対照的に非癌部より抽出された線維芽細胞との比較により、CAFsで遺伝子発現が変化している独自の遺伝子群を同定し、本研究では、endoglinに焦点を当て、CAFsでTGF-bやSDF-1オートクラインシグナルとの関与を明らかにした。また、本研究ではCAFsにおけるendoglinの発現が、患者の予後予測マーカ―になることを明確にした。さらに、CAFsにおけるendoglinの発現抑制を基に、CAFsを標的にした新規癌治療法の開発に今後役立つ可能性を見出した。
