Project description:We evaluated the expression profile of miRNA and snoRNA of normal mucosa in five patients with synchronous CRCs and seven patients with solitary CRCs using the Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA 1.0 array. We found that global dysregulated miRNAs and snoRNAs in normal mucosa between solitary and synchronous CRC. Our findings represent the first comprehensive miRNA and snoRNA expression signatures in normal mucosa between solitary and synchronous CRC, which increases the understanding of the molecular basis of synchronous CRC, and firstly implicates the difference of genetic background in patients with solitary and synchronous CRC. Examination of microRNA and snoRNA expression of normal mucosa in patients with solitary and synchronous CRC.

Project description:We evaluated the profile of miRNA and snoRNA expression in 5 synchronous CRC and matched normal colorectal tissues using the Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA 1.0 array. A total of 24 miRNA differential expressed transcripts which represent 27 mature miRNAs, including an oncogenic miR-17-92a and oncosuppressive miR-143-145 cluster, and a global up-regulation of snoRNAs were revealed in cancer tissues compared with matched normal tissues. Global miRNA expression could distinguish synchronous cancer from normal mucosa. Our findings represent the first comprehensive miRNA and snoRNA expression signatures for synchronous CRC, which increase the understanding of the molecular basis of synchronous CRC, and firstly implicate that dysregulation of snoRNAs and miRNA clusters may present therapeutic targets for synchronous CRC. Examination of microRNA and snoRNA expression in synchronous CRC and matched normal colorectal tissues
Project description:We evaluated the profile of miRNA and snoRNA expression in 7 solitary CRC and matched normal colorectal tissues using the Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA 1.0 array. We found that global dysregulated miRNAs and snoRNAs between cancer tissue and normal mucosa in solitary CRC. Our findings firstly implicates that dysregulation of snoRNAs and miRNA may play important role in the cancinogenesis and present therapeutic targets for solitary CRC.

Project description:Identification of differentially expressed microRNAs in Colorectal Cancer Distant metastasis is the major determinant of patient outcome in colorectal cancer and microRNAs have emerged as an increasingly important class of molecules which can regulate several steps of the metastatic cascade. By systematically analysing the miR expression profiles of resected metastasis-, corresponding primary tumor- and normal tissues of colorectal cancer patients, we were able to delineate a miR-signature indicative of the metastatically critical microRNA landscape. 9 colorectal cancer patients were profiled comprising 5 patients with tissues from the primary tumor, normal mucosa, secondary metastasis and the background tissue in which the metastasis ocurred. In the remaining 4 patients, one of these four tissue entitities is missing. One patient had two synchronous primary tumors, one in the colon and the other in the rectum.
