Project description:Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients are usually diagnosed at late stages, prohibiting the chance of surgical cure. The obstacle partly comes from the lack of molecular markers for early detection. Moreover, there is no consensus about endoscopic surveillance for ESCC. This study aimed to identify noninvasive markers for ESCC detection. By microarray-based screening of 17 pairs of human ESCC specimens, we identified that secreted protein matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP1) may be associated with the presence of ESCC.

By microarray-based screening of 17 pairs of human ESCC specimens, we identified that secreted protein matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP1) may be associated with the presence of ESCC. The tumor and adjacent normal tissues were obtained from 17 male ESCC patients who underwent total esophagectomy without previous cancer treatment at Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital (KMUH)
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of tumor and normal samples with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients. The Illumina GolodenGate methylation cancer panel I was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 1,505 CpGs in esophageal squemous cell carcinoma samples. Samples included normal, tumors and plasma samples with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, also inculding the plasma samples with cancer-free individual.
Project description:The purpose of this study is to explore the circRNAs expression profiles in the plasma from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients.The purpose of this study is to explore the circRNAs expression profiles in the plasma from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients.

Samples included normal, tumors and plasma samples with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, also inculding the plasma samples with cancer-free individual. Bisulfite converted DNA from the 288 samples were hybridised to the Illumina GolodenGate methylation cancer panel I
Project description:This study was designed to identify genes aberrantly expressed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells. Three esophageal squamous cell carcinoma-derived cell lines and one normal human esophageal squamous cell line were analyzed.
Project description:Profiles of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and normal esophageal normal epithelium normal cell line. Analysis provides validation of novel microRNA targets prediction algorithms. esophageal squamous cell carcinoma:14, normal epithelium cell:2
Project description:Screening and identification of novel biomarkers affecting the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma by whole-transcriptome sequencing of 6 pairs of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma tissues and adjacent tissues
Project description:SAGE libraries made of squamous esophagus tissue, primary cell culture or esophageal squamous cell carcinoma Keywords: SAGE analysis of different tissues squamous esophagus biopsy was taken from 1 male metaplastic Barrett's esophagus patient. primary cell culture was from 1 male Barrett's esophagus patient. Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma was from a patient known to have ESCC
