Gene expression profiling of HPV-negative oropharyngeal cancers and Normal benign uvula, tonsil


ABSTRACT: Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the fifth most common malignancy worldwide with an annual mortality rate of 200,000. About 90% of HNC can be classified as head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), of which approximately 75% are attributed to alcohol and tobacco consumption and 25 are associated with human papillomavirus (HPV), predominantly HPV16. HPV-associated OPC have better prognosis and a more favorable response to therapy as compared to HPV-negative tumors. Differences in risk factors, age of presentation, clinical behavior and gene expression profiles indicate that HPV-positive and HPV-negative tumors develop via different molecular mechanisms and are biologically distinct. This study aimed to compare the gene expression profiles of HPV-negative oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPC) and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues and determine what biological processes and pathways are affected in HPV-negative OPCs. ANALYSIS 6: Two-condition, one-color experiment: HPV-negative oropharyngeal tumor samples and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues. Biological replicates: 16 HPV negtive samples and 4 Normal samples.
