Project description:Genome-wide mRNA expression profiles of 100 primary and matched non-malignant tissues of HCC patients from a Singapore patient cohort. HCC is a hetergenous disease and it is important to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms. Here, we studied the role of microRNAs in HCC by integrating microRNA and gene expression profiles of HCC patients. Profiling of 100 primary and adjacent non-malignant HCC tissue samples on Agilent two-color whole human genome gene expression microarray (design G4112F). All tissues were collected with approvals from the National Cancer Centre, Singapore; the Research Ethics Review Committee; and signed patient informed consent.

Project description:Here we aimed to develop a new molecular prognostic stratification system for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients after liver resection based on common prognostic factors for primary tumors (PTs) and adjacent non-tumor tissues (ANTTs). We studied global mRNA expression profiles from 115 PT tissue samples and 52 ANTT samples derived from 115 HCC patients. Methods for the study included gene expression analysis, Functional Annotation/Gene Ontology analysis and unsupervised survival prognosis approach based on Cox hazards prognosis model. This study provides a practical prognostic system for reliable identification of the high-risk HCC patients subgroup with clearly described deregulated molecular machinery in both PTs and ANTTs.

Project description:Non-coding microRNAs (miRNAs) mainly regulate the expression of targeted genes by regulating mRNA degradation or repressing their protein translation. MiRNA microarray profiling was then performed on 218 human HCC tumors samples, 10 samples from adjacent cirrhotic non-tumoral tissue, 10 samples from healthy liver and 12 HCC cell lines. In this study we investigated which miRNAs were differentially expressed in HCC compared to cirrhotic non-tumoral tissue and healthy liver.
Project description:To study its expression and regulatory functions in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression, whole transcriptome RNA sequencing in paired HCC tumor and adjacent non-tumor liver tissue samples from 3 local Hispanic patients was performed.
