Project description:Purpose: To investigate the role and mechanism of mRNAs, long chain non-coding RNAs and circular RNAs in gastric cancer. Methods: RNA-seq of ribosomal RNA-depleted total RNA were performed to screen differential expressed mRNAs, long chain non-coding RNAs between paired gastric cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues.For the linear RNA was digested with 3 U of RNase R per µg of RNA. Results: A total of 83672 mRNAs, 105998 long chain non-coding RNAs, 25441 distinct circRNAs were identified in these samples, and 13929 of these circRNAs were identified as novel circRNAs.
Project description:Purpose: To investigate the role and mechanism of circRNAs in gastric cancer. Methods: RNA-seq of ribosomal RNA-depleted total RNA and qRT-PCR were performed to screen differential expressed circRNAs between paired gastric cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues. Results: A total of 57623 distinct circRNAs were identified in these samples, and 35120 of these circRNAs contained at least two independent back-spliced reads in at least two samples. Compared with circBase, we found that there were 29007 matched circRNAs and 28616 novel circRNAs in our study.
Project description:This is a commercially available Affymetrix chip from 16 pairs of gastric cancer and corresponding adjacent normal tissues, used for screening differentially expressed genes associated with gastric cancer.
Project description:In this study, we used single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to further elucidate the composition of the gastric cancer and adjacent normal tissue microenvironment and found that TNF and ACTG1 may be key regulators of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in gastric cancer. A total of seven cell types were identified, including B cells, T cells, NK cells, mast cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and epithelial cells. T cells were further divided into 8 subgroups. Among them, Tregs showed the greatest difference between GC and adjacent normal tissues. Next, we clarified the function and signaling pathway of Tregs in the GC tumor microenvironment, obtained the key regulatory proteins TNF and ACTG1, and explored their clinical significance and possible effects on Tregs in the GC tumor microenvironment. This scRNA-seq study may reveal the composition of tumor microenvironment and clarify the role of Tregs in the development of gastric cancer, providing new methods for GC treatment.
Project description:We implemented lncRNA microarray analysis in 5 paired gastric cancer tissues and adjacent noncancerous tissues to identify differential expression of lncRNAs and mRNAs in gastric cancer.
Project description:Copy number variation profiling of gastric tissues comparing gastric cancer tissues with matched adjacent noncancerous tissues. Goal was to determine the effects of chromosomal imbalances on gene expression and carcinogenesis or progression. 27 pairs of gastric tissues: gastric cancer tissues vs. matched adjacent noncancerous tissues.
Project description:To elucidate gene expression associated with copy number changes, we performed a genome-wide copy number and expression microarray analysis of 25 pairs of gastric tissues. 25 pairs of gastric tissues: gastric cancer tissues vs. matched adjacent noncancerous tissues.
