Project description:There are 19 differentially expressed microRNAs among new HIV-infected cases, old HIV-infected cases and healthy controls. Five microRNAs show trends in healthy controls, new HIV-infected cases and old HIV-infected cases, they are hsa-miR-1291, and hsa-miR-3609 with up-trends, and hsa-miR-3162-3p, hsa-miR-874-5p and hsa-miR-4258 with down-trends.
Project description:Esophageal cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers and the sixth leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Approximately 70% of the global esophageal cancers occur in China and over 90% histopathological forms of this disease are esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Currently, there are limited clinical approaches for early diagnosis and treatment for ESCC, resulting in a 10% 5-year survival rate for the patients. Meanwhile, the full repertoire of genomic events leading to the pathogenesis of ESCC remains unclear. Here we show a comprehensive genomic analysis in 158 ESCC cases, as part of the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) Research Projects (http://icgc.org/icgc/cgp/72/371/1001734). We conducted whole-genome sequencing in 17 ESCC cases and whole-exome sequencing in 71 cases, of which 53 cases and additional 70 ESCC cases were subjected to array comparative genomic hybridization (a-CGH) analysis.

Project description:Between 80% and 90% of renal carcinomas are either clear cell renal cell carcinoma or papillary RCC although there are at least 20 other distinct forms of RCC recognised by the World Health Organization (WHO). Emerging or provisional entities have been considered as variants of PRCC, including papillary renal neoplasm with reversed polarity (PRNRP). However, the molecular basis of PRNRP is unknown. We used microarray analysis to elucidate the gene profile of 10 PRNRP cases and an additional 7 PRCC cases. Cases were only considered for this study after fulfilment of strict inclusive histological and immunohistochemical criteria. We used Affymetrix Clariom D human arrays to elucidate the expression of these samples.
Project description:Analyzing and comparing proteome profiling between human control and AD cases will be beneficial to understand the molecular changes of insoluble fractions of AD cases.
