Project description:Keratinocyte-derived cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the most common metastatic skin cancer, and its incidence is increasing globally. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in various biological processes, and their role in cancer progression is emerging. Whole transcriptome analysis of cSCC cells (n=8) and normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs, n=4) revealed overexpression of long intergenic ncRNA (LINC00162) in cSCC cells (GSE66412). We wanted to futher study the RNA expression profile of LINC00162 knockdown cSCC cells. Based on our observations, LINC00162 was named PICSAR (P38 Inhibited Cutaneous Squamous cell carcinoma Associated lincRNA).
Project description:Analysis of BNC1, IRF6, FRA1, and JUNB genome binding/occupancy in epidermal keratinocyes and cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma cell lines
Project description:This is a Phase 1b/2, open-label multicenter study evaluating NKTR-255 as a monotherapy and together with cetuximab in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), colorectal carcinoma (CRC), cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), anal cell carcinoma (ASCC) and cervical cancer. The recommended phase 2 dose of NKTR-255, determined in the dose escalation phase (Phase 1b), will be used to treat patients in Phase 2 of this study.
Project description:This project assesses the risk of metastasis in formalin-fixed and paraffin embedded primary cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma using DIA-MS proteomics.
Project description:To determine the differentially expressed miRNAs in human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma biopsies versus normal skin samples using microarray analysis.
