Project description:Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer. High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is the most common histologic subtype, accounting for three quarters of ovarian cancer. To clarify the changes of gene expression in serous ovarian cancer, we performed lncRNA and mRNA microarrays to identify differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in High-grade and Low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma compared with Normal fallopian tube.
Project description:High-grade serous ovarian cancer is the most aggressive histological type of epithelial ovarian cancer, which is characterized by a high frequency of somatic TP53 mutations. To provide a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of these cancers and to develop a risk classification system, we conducted profiling of the copy number alterations present in these tumors. Thirty patients who were diagnosed as high-grade serous ovarian cancer were recruited in this study. Affymetrix SNP array were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from high-grade serous ovarian cancer tissues or peripheral blood samples.

Project description:In this study, we performed miRNA profiles analysis of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma compared to normal fallopian tube fimbria using microarray (Exiqon, Denmark) to evaluate their potential role in the pathogenesis of uterine leiomyoma. miRNA profiling analysis of the 10 samples including 5 high-grade serous ovarian carcinomas and 5 normal fallopian tube fimbria.
Project description:We identified novel, gross morphology-based subtypes of high-grade serous ovarian cancer, with unique clinical features and molecular signatures.
Project description:We measured gene expression in single-cell RNA sequencing samples from patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), for a study on improving HGSOC subtype definition by taking into account varying cell type proportions within tumors.
Project description:Comparative genomic hybridization analysis on advanced stage high-grade serous ovarian cancer. CGH was performed on 42 DNA isolated from microdissected advanced stage high-grade serous ovarian cancer.
