Research Abstract |
To elucidate invasive and metastatic mechanism in oral cancer for application to molecular based diagnosis and gene therapy, we conducted research in accordance with our projects. As a result, we identified Wnt5B and MMP10 as promoter of , microRNA-203 as suppressor of tumor invasion, Periostin as promoter of lymphangiogenesis, MMP-13 as promoter of angiogenesis. Additionally, we attempted to apply Periostin to Elisa for serum of oral cancer patients. Interestingly, we found upregulation of Periostin correlated with lymphonode metastasis status. Therefore, we showed Periostin could be a useful for molecular diagnostic marker in oral cancer.
