Project description:The development of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a multistep process requiring the accumulation of genetic alterations. Oral carcinogenesis is a multifactorial process involving numerous genetic changes that affect the activity of oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes and other classes of disease-related genes.Therefore, to identify the responsive genes for progression of oral dysplasia or OSCC, we here performed CGH analysis to DNA from oral dysplasia and OSCC by microdissection Copy number analysis of Affymetrix 250K SNP arrays was performed for 8 oral dysplasia samples, 8 oral squamous cell carcinoma samples, using microdissection
Project description:Using Affymetrix Mapping 250K array, we studied copy number aberrations in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) to identified biomarkers associated with occult lymph node metastasis. We used frozen specimens from 60 OSCC patients. Copy number analysis was performed using homogenized samples of 60 oral squamous cell carcinoma patients by GeneChip Human Mapping 250k Sty arrays. As a reference, SNP array data set of 50 normal Asians (Japanese & Chinese) from HapMap database was used.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE25099: Expression data from 57 patients with oral cancer and 22 normal persons GSE25103: Affymetrix SNP array data for oral squamous cell carcinoma Refer to individual Series
Project description:Identification of genes that are differentially regulated in fibroblasts derived from dysplastic oral mucosa and oral squamous cell carcinoma compared to fibroblasts derived from normal oral mucosa. Affymetrix microarrays were used to define differential gene expression. Populations of fibroblasts were isolated from human normal oral mucosa, oral dysplasia and oral squamous cell carcinoma, maintained in 3D collagen I biomatrices, RNA extracted and processed for Affymetrix arrays. Fibroblasts maintained as monolayers were also included as comparators.
