Abstract

Use of an animal model of spontaneous metastasis bearing a tumor derived from a cell line RM72 (Accession No. NITE BP-1110) allows simultaneous evaluation of tumorigenesis and spontaneous cancer metastasis. Use of a screening method using the animal model of spontaneous metastasis allows the obtainment of a substance having an anticancer activity and/or an anti-metastatic activity. Use of another screening method for selecting a substance that increases the expression of RECK in a cancer cell allows the obtainment of a substance that can serve as an active ingredient in an anticancer drug.
