• 大腸直腸癌已躍居世界上癌症死亡率第二名，屬於固體型腫瘤，缺氧常見於此類 腫瘤，並誘發HIF-1α 表現而導致抗藥性及預後較差，因此抑制HIF-1α 被視為新的抗 癌策略。Zebularine (Zeb)是較穩定之DNA methyltransferase (DNMT)抑制劑，可殺死癌 細胞而不影響正常細胞，對小鼠也不具毒性。我們初步結果顯示，Zeb 可抑制人類大 腸癌細胞株HCT116 之HIF-1α表現，代表Zeb 是治療大腸直腸癌之潛力藥物。我們的 初步也證明Zeb對HCT116具毒殺性，對小鼠大腸癌也有療效。細胞自我吞噬(autophagy) 是指細胞在惡劣環境下，經由吞噬細胞內物質產生能量渡過外界壓力的一種保護機 制；也有研究報導指出，藥物會誘導癌細胞產生autophagy，造成細胞過度吞噬其內容 物而死亡，因此，autophagy在癌細胞為保護或是引發毒殺作用，目前仍無定論。缺氧 也會透過HIF-1α 導致autophagy 而促進細胞存活，但嚴重缺氧或無氧狀態則可透過活 化AMPK及unfolded protein response (UPR)造成autophagic cell death。我們初步結果顯 示，除抑制HIF-1α 表現外，Zeb 也可活化AMPK、UPR/ER stress、以及autophagy， 因此我們推測Zeb 可在缺氧狀態下，促進autophagic cell death。3 年內我們將執行4 項 目標： (1) 探討Zeb 在各種癌細胞及活體模式之抗癌作用。（第一年） (2) 研究Zeb 抑制HIF-1α表現之分子機轉。（第一年到第二年） (3) 研究Zeb 誘發autophagy之分子機轉。（第二年到第三年） (4) 探討Zeb 對缺氧導致抗藥性之作用。（第三年）
