Project description:We performed gene expression profiling of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cholangiocarcinoma (CC), and mixed type of combined HCC and CC (CHC). In comparison of the profiles, a novel class of HCC expressing CC-like traits was identified. Gene expression profiling of 70 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), 13 cholangiocarcinoma (CC), and 7 mixed type of combined HCC and CC (CHC) were performed.
Project description:To explore the potential involvement of lncRNAs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) oncogenesis, we conducted lncRNA and mRNA profiling in 3 pairs of human HCC and adjacent normal tissue (NT) by microarray. With abundant probes accounting for 33,045 lncRNAs and 30,215 coding transcripts in our microarray, the number of lncRNAs and coding transcripts that could be detected here is 10,149 and 14,944, respectively. From the data, thousands of lncRNAs and mRNAs were found to bedifferentially expressed (Fold Change≥2.0) in HCC tissues compared with NT and identified 624 lncRNAs and 1050 mRNAs were differentially expressed in all three HCC tissues.Bioinformatic analysis (gene ontology, pathway and network analysis) was performed for further study of these differentially expressed mRNAs.By qRT-PCR analysis in nineteen pairs HCC and adjacent normal tissues, we found that eightl ncRNAs were aberrantly expressed in HCC compared with corresponding NT, which is consistent with microarray data. Additionally, change trends of seven lncRNAs were basically identical to their nearby coding genes. In this study, to explore the potential involvement of lncRNAs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) oncogenesis, we conducted lncRNA and mRNA profiling in 3 pairs of human HCC and adjacent normal tissue (NT) by microarray.
Project description:LncRNA profiling of hepatocellular carcinoma vs. matched noncancerous liver tissue, aimed to analyze the lncRNA expression profile of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and identify prognosis-related lncRNAs.
