Pancreatic Cancer 1

ABSTRACT: This is the experiment set used for a paper written in collaboration with Hopkins. It compares genes that are differentially expressed between normal pancreas, pancreatic cell lines and pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Pancreatic cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer death in the United States. We used cDNA microarrays to analyze global gene expression patterns in 14 pancreatic cancer cell lines, 17 resected infiltrating pancreatic cancer tissues, and 5 samples of normal pancreas to identify genes that are differentially expressed in pancreatic cancer. We found more than 400 cDNAs corresponding to genes that were differentially expressed in the pancreatic cancer tissues and cell lines as compared to normal pancreas. These genes that tended to be expressed at higher levels in pancreatic can
