Project description:Global microRNA expression profiling of microdissected pancreatic tissues were collected using Agilent miRNA microarrays (G4470B, Sanger 10.1) carrying 723 individual human miRNA probes. Four different sources of RNA were analyzed: microdissected normal pancreatic ductal cells (ND, n=4),microdissected acinar cells (AC, n=4), macrodissected chronic pancreatitis (CP, n=5) and micordissected xenograft tissues derived from primary pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC, n=5). Four condition (AZ, ND, PDAC, CP), each condition is represented by 4 to 5 biological replicates
Project description:microRNA expression profiling of Stage I Lung Adenocarcinoma and non-tumor adjacent tissues. The Nanostring nCounter Human miRNA Expression Assay Kit version 1.6 (Nanostring, Seattle, WA) was used to obtain microRNA profiles of tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissues excised from Stage I Lung Adenocarcinoma patients.
Project description:Solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm of pancreas(SPN), ductal adenocarcinoma(PCA), neuroendocrine tumor(NET) and non-neoplastic pancreas. To investigate the specific gene expression of SPN compared to other types of pancreatic tumor, we analyzed large-scale gene expressioin analysis to identify the molecular signature that may affect SPN tumorigenesis. Differentially expressed genes were analyzed on SPNs, PCAs, NETs and Non-neoplastic tissues. Solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is an uncommon pancreatic tumor with distinct clinicopathologic features. SPNs are characterized by mutations in exon 3 of CTNNB1. However, little is known about the gene and microRNA expression profiles of SPNs. Thus, we sought to characterize SPN-specific gene expression and identify the signaling pathways activated in these tumors. The mRNA expression profile of 14 SPNs, 6 pancreatic adenocarcinomas (PCAs), 6 pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), and five non-neoplastic pancreatic tissues were analyzed.
Project description:Microarray analysis of 63 patients with pancreatic cancer tissues resulted in the identification of a 15-gene signature to predict overall survival RNA was extracted from microdissected frozen pancreatic tissues for gene array analysis
Project description:Solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm of pancreas (SPN), ductal adenocarcinoma (PCA), neuroendocrine tumor (NET) and non-neoplastic pancreas. comparison with gene expression of tumors and non-tumors To investigate the specific microRNA expression of SPN compared to other types of pancreatic tumor, we analyzed large-scale microRNA expressioin analysis to identify the molecular signature that may affect SPN tumorigenesis with mRNA expression profiles. Differentially expressed microRNAs were analyzed on SPNs, PCAs, NETs and Non-neoplastic tissues.
Project description:Expression profiling of 8 normal pancreatic and 14 PDAC tissues. Data was generated from Affymetrix arrays. Results provide a global profile of over 50,000 genes in normal and tumorous tissues, and comparison of the differentially expressed genes between the normal and tumor groups.
