Department/Research Field

Cancer Molecular Genetics


Research content
Our laboratory is engaged in research to elucidate the mechanisms of carcinogenesis, progression, and metastasis of human solid tumors, especially malignant mesothelioma, both in vivo and at the molecular cellular level. Using the results of these studies, we aim to discover novel molecular target molecules and develop new therapeutic strategies for malignant mesothelioma and other human solid tumors.

Research theme

Elucidation of Molecular Mechanisms of Cancer Cell Proliferation
Search for novel molecular targets using synthetic lethality
Development of a method to detect circulating cancer cells in blood
