Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. The Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChips 850K has been used to interrogate DNA methylation changes. The cohort included 23 patients in total, with precursors of squamous cell carcinoma (actinic keratosis group) and with cSCC at different stages.
Project description:To determine the differentially expressed miRNAs in human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma biopsies versus normal skin samples using microarray analysis.
Project description:Analysis of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma cell lines at genomic and transciptomic level. The molecular landscape of patient derived cell lines reflects that of primary tumours.
Project description:<p>The Exome Sequencing Analysis of Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) study is a single-center cohort study. To identify recurrent genomic aberrations that might underlie the development of this malignancy, we performed whole exome sequencing on a series of SCC-normal pairs to distill a list of 336 candidate genes that were subsequently re-sequenced in 100 SCC-normal pairs with an average depth >1200X. This study also included whole-genome copy number analysis on 5 primary SCC with KNSTRN p.Ser24Phe and 5 histologically matched SCC with wild-type KNSTRN.</p>
