Project description:Transcriptional profiling of colon epithelial biopsies from ulcerative colitis patients and healthy control donors. Study aims to survey and analyze variation from disease in different GI regions. Keywords: disease state analysis
Project description:Gene expression profiles were performed to compare the difference in sigmoid colon biopsies between from healthy control and patients with ulcerative colitis. Keywords: disease signature
Project description:Ulcerative Colitis is an autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease that causes chronic inflammation in the colon and the rectum. Althoung extensively researched, the underlying molecular mechanisms of Ulcerative Colitis remain elusive. Especially, there is a lack of understanding about regulatory non-coding miRNA expression during Ulcerative Colitis. Therefore, we performed high-throughput miRNA profiling of colon tissue biopsies from XX patients with active Ulcerative Colitis, XX patients with quiescent Ulcerative Colitis and XX Symptomatic Control individuals.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of colon epithelial biopsies from ulcerative colitis patients and healthy control donors. Study aims to survey and analyze variation from disease in different GI regions. Keywords: disease state analysis Biopsies from a variety of anatomic locations, from patients of various treatment status or healthy controls.
Project description:Primary outcome(s): Diagnostic accuracy of DNA methylation analysis for ulcerative colitis patients complicated with colorectal cancer using rectal mucosa from ulcerative colitis
Project description:Ulcerative Colitis is an autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease that causes chronic inflammation in the colon and the rectum. Althoung extensively researched, the underlying molecular mechanisms of Ulcerative Colitis remain elusive. Especially, there is a lack of understanding about regulatory non-coding miRNA expression during Ulcerative Colitis in a cell type-specific context. Therefore, we performed high-throughput miRNA profiling of Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS)-enriched CD66a+ and CD44+ colonic epithelial cell populations from colon tissue biopsies of 16 patients with active Ulcerative Colitis, 15 patients with quiescent Ulcerative Colitis and 17 Symptomatic Control individuals.
