Project description:Purpose: To gain molecular insights of HBV integration that may contribute to HCC tumorigenesis, we performed whole transcriptome sequencing and whole genome copy number profiling of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) samples from 50 Chinese patients. Conclusions: This is the first report on the molecular basis of the MLL4 integration driving MLL4 over-expression. HBV-MLL4 integration occurred frequently in Chinese HCC patients, representing a unique molecular segment for HCC with HBV infection.
Project description:Primary objectives: The primary objective is to investigate circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via deep sequencing for mutation detection and by whole genome sequencing for copy number analyses before start (baseline) with regorafenib and at defined time points during administration of regorafenib for treatment efficacy in colorectal cancer patients in terms of overall survival (OS).

We profiled 50 Chinese Hepatocellular Carcinoma patients and 14 adjacent tissues using Agilent 244K array CGH technology. 50 Tumor samples also did RNASeq profiling.
Project description:Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of plants. The goals of this study are to compare omparatively evaluated both sequence variation and gene expression at the transcriptomic level between two species. Methods: Pooled total RNA of P. floridana flower buds and young fruits, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeqTM 2000. The sequence reads remove reads with adaptors or unknown nucleotides larger than 5% and low-quality reads using . qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green assays Results: Sequencing the Physalis transcriptome revealed 147,118 unigenes. When aligned to the tomato genome, we estimated that around 30,121 genes were expressed in the Physalis floral-fruit transcriptome, and 10,498 orthologous gene pairs were identified between P. floridana and S. pimpinellifolium.with a fold change ≥1.5 and FER value <0.001, 0.68% of the unigenes in the Physalis floral-fruit transcriptome were developmentally regulated at the floral-fruit transition, and Altered expression of 15 genes was confirmed with qRT–PCR, demonstrating the high degree of sensitivity of the RNA-seq method. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of floral-fruit transcriptomes, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology.The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide a framework for comparative investigations of expression profiles. Our results show that NGS offers a comprehensive and more accurate quantitative and qualitative evaluation of mRNA content within a organ or tissue. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would expedite genetic network analyses and permit the dissection of complex biologic functions.
Project description:We sequenced and analyzed the genome of a highly inbred miniature Chinese pig strain, the Banna Minipig Inbred Line (BMI). we conducted whole genome screening using next generation sequencing (NGS) technology and performed SNP calling using Sus Scrofa genome assembly Sscrofa11.1.
Project description:To reveal the origin of the wheat B sub-genome, we performed the whole genome sequencing of sitopsis species. Besides, we also conducted the RNA seq of Ae.speltoides and hexaploid wheat Chinese Spring.
