Outline of Final Research Achievements

We focused on brain tumor cell factor and tumor tissue environmental factor to develop DDS therapy for malignant brain tumor.Tissue factor is one of the trigger molecule for exogenous coagulation in malignant tumor. We examined drug delivery method using anti tissue factor factor monoclonal antibody. First of all, immunostaining of glioma was carried out, and it was confirmed that tissue factor was highly expressed as malignancy increased. Next, we conducted animal experiments in which the glioblastoma cell line was transplanted subcutaneously, and it was confirmed that the anti-tissue factor antibody highly accumulated in the tumor and did not accumulate in normal organs. It is expected to develop into an antibody drug complex using tissue factor antibody.
