Project description:Invasive malignant pleomorphic adenoma (IMPA) results from the malignant transformation of pleomorphic adenoma (PA). The former is a high-grade malignant tumor, whereas the latter is a benign opposite. Study on the molecular mechanism in the progression of PA to IMPA will be of benefit to elucidate the reasons for different biological behaviors among these salivary gland tumors with the same origin. But there is no valuable and non-invasive biomarker to screen IMPA currently. Studies showed many salivary molecules can detect several systemic diseases. We aimed to investigate whether salivary mRNAs (mRNA) can act as a biomarker to detect IMPA.
Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most popular RNA modifications, which is widely found in messenger RNAs (mRNAs) .In our study,we provide m6A profiles of human invasive malignant pleomorphic adenoma, which open an avenue for in-depth knowledge and understanding of m6A topology in invasive malignant pleomorphic adenoma.
Project description:Here, we performed single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis for 27, 810 cells from 2 donors with primary salivary gland pleomorphic adenoma
