Project description:Tissues from another series of 74 patients with colorectal cancer were collected by laser micro-dissection with the Leica Laser Microdissection System (Leica Microsystems). Gene expression levels obtained from 74 microdissected colorectal tumors were compared with 5 microdissected normal colon epitheliums. We used the commercially available Human Whole Genome Oligo DNA Microarray Kit (Agilent Technologies). Labeled cRNAs were fragmented and hybridized to an oligonucleotide microarray (Whole Human Genome 4×44K Agilent G4112F). Fluorescence intensities were determined with an Agilent DNA Microarray Scanner and were analyzed using G2567AA Feature Extraction Software Version A.7.5.1 (Agilent Technologies).

Project description:Analysis of differentially expressed genes from dissected whole tissue and laser capture microdissected colorectal cancer tissue samples The analysis, in colorectal cancer tissues, of compartmental and whole tissue expression profiles as well as the significantly active pathways that were differentially deregulated between the epithelial and stromal compartments when compared alongside that of whole tissue dissection
Project description:Using Laser Microdissection System (Leica Microsystems), RNA samples specific for stroma or epithelium were separately collected from thirteen colorectal cancer tissues and four normal tissues. Both microRNA microarray and gene expression microarray were performed in these samples. Tissue samples from thirteen colorectal cancer tissues and four normal tissues were microdissected using Laser Microdissection System (Leica Microsystems), and RNA samples specific for stroma or epithelium were separately collected.MicroRNA and Gene expression profiles obtained from cancer stromal tissues were compared with that of normal colon stromal tissues. we used the commercially available Human Whole Genome Oligo DNA Microarray Kit (Agilent Technologies) for gene expresson analysis and microRNA array for microRNA analysis.
Project description:Ependymomas are glial tumors that share morphologic similarities with ependymal cells. Here we laser microdissected ependymoma cells of 15 infratentorial tumors and generated gene expression profiles. These profiles were compared to those of 7 laser microdissected ependymal tissues.

Project description:Tissues from another series of 132 patients with colorectal cancer were collected by laser micro-dissection with the Leica Laser Microdissection System (Leica Microsystems). Gene expression levels obtained from 132 microdissected colorectal tumors were compared with microdissected normal colon epitheliums. we used the commercially available Human Whole Genome Oligo DNA Microarray Kit (Agilent Technologies). Labeled cRNAs were fragmented and hybridized to an oligonucleotide microarray (Whole Human Genome 4×44K Agilent G4112F).
