Project description:To characterize genomic instability in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, we examined loss of heterozygosity, copy number loss, and copy number gain in ESCC patients from a high-risk region of China. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from microdissected esophageal squamous cell carcinoma samples or peripheral blood samples. Tumor DNA samples were normalized individually to the set of 102 peripheral blood samples. Copy number variations and loss of heterozygosity were determined by a paired analysis of tumor and blood DNA from the same individual.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) tumor and adjacent normal samples using the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC array to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 850,000 CpGs. Data included pathologically confirmed 108 tumor and 51 normal samples
Project description:Protein identification in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC) was performed,we explored the proteomic landscape in ESCC and attempted to perform clinical-related patient classification based on ESCC proteome.
