Patent

CA 2728243

The present inventors discovered that neural invasion is suppressed by inhibiting IL-6 in a model for neural invasion of pancreatic cancer, and completed the present invention. The present inventors also demonstrated that: an IL-6 receptor is expressed in cells of human pancreatic cancer cell lines; and IL-6 enhances the chemotactic and migratory activities and intracellular signaling of pancreatic cancer cells; and thus pancreatic cancer can be treated by inhibiting IL-6. Furthermore, the present inventors found that neural invasion of human pancreatic cancer can be suppressed, from the results of administering IL-6 inhibitors to neural invasion model mice.

Selon l'invention, une neuro-invasion dans un modèle de neuro-invasion pour un cancer du pancréas peut être inhibée par l'inhibition de IL-6. En outre, il est démontré qu'un récepteur de IL-6 est exprimé dans une lignée cellulaire du cancer du pancréas humain et IL-6 peut augmenter la capacité chimiotactique, la capacité migratoire et la signalisation intercellulaire d'une cellule du cancer du pancréas, et il est également démontré qu'un cancer du pancréas peut être traité par l'inhibition de IL-6. De plus, il est démontré qu'une neuro-invasion de cancer du pancréas humain peut être inhibée par l'administration d'un inhibiteur de IL-6 à un modèle de neuro-invasion de souris.
