Transcription profiling of human colorectal cancers with and without microsatellite instability identifies a set of discriminating genes and identifies proximal and distal cancers


ABSTRACT: Samples were taken from colorectal cancers in surgically resected specimens in 84 colorectal cancer patients. The expression profiles were determined using Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 arrays. Comparison between the sample groups allow to identify a set of discriminating genes between MSI and MSS cancers and, furthermore, to determine the distinct characteristics of proximal and distal MSI cancers. Experiment Overall Design: Eighty-four colorectal cancer patients who had undergone surgical resection of colorectal cancer were studied. To identify molecular signatures of MSI cancers, gene expression profiles were compared between MSI and MSS cancers. Next, we examined the difference in gene expression profiles between proximal and distal MSI cancers.

Promoter methylation of the mismatch repair gene plays a key role in sporadic microsatellite instability (MSI) colorectal cancers. However, promoter methylation often occurs in proximal colon cancers, and molecular phenotypes underlying MSI cancers in distal colon have not been fully clarified. Our goal was to clarify the difference between MSI and microsatellite stability (MSS) cancers and, furthermore, to determine distinct characteristics of proximal and distal MSI cancers.
