Project description:We aimed to characterize the genomic profiles of adenocarcinomas in the gastroesophageal junction in relation to cancers in the esophagus and the stomach. Profiles of gains/losses as well as gene expression profiles were obtained from 27 gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas using 32k high-resolution array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) and 27k oligo gene expression arrays and putative target genes were validated in an extended series. Adenocarcinomas in the distal esophagus and the gastroesophageal junction showed strong similarities with the most common gains at 20q13, 8q24, 1q21-q23, 5p15, 13q34, and 12q13, whereas different profiles with gains at 5p15, 7p22, 2q35, and 13q34 characterized gastric cancers. CDK6 and EGFR were identified as putative target genes in cancers of the esophagus and the gastroesophageal junction with upregulation in one quarter of the tumors. Gains/losses and gene expression profiles show strong similarity between cancers in the distal esophagus and the gastroesophageal junction with frequent upregulation of CDK6 and EGFR, whereas gastric cancer displays distinct genetic changes. These data suggest that molecular diagnostics and targeted therapies can be applied to adenocarcinomas of the distal esophagus and gastroesophageal junction alike. Three types of gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas; 7 distal esophageal (EA) tumors, 9 junctional (JA) and 7 proximal stomach cancers (GA) was genomically profiled using tiling 32k BAC-arrays. Two replicates of tumors IDs 1-EA-CGH (replicate 1-EA-CGH-2), 12-EA-CGH (replicate 12-EA-CGH-2) and 18-EA-CGH (replicate 18-EA-CGH-2). Reference samples consist of a pool of male DNA (Promega, Madison, WI, USA).

Project description:We aimed to genetically characterize adenocarcinomas in the gastroesophagel junction in relation to cancers in the esophagus and the stomach. In total 27 tumors was genetically profiled using gene expression array. Adenocarcinomas located in the gastroesophageal junction showed strong similarites with tumors in the distal esophagus, whereas different profiles were generated for tumors in the proximal stomach. Three types of gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas; 10 distal esophageal (EA) tumors, 9 junctional (JA) and 8 proximal stomach cancers (GA) was undergone differentially analysis based on gene expression profiles. One replicate of tumor ID 27_JA (replicate ID 27_JA_2) and one replicate of tumor ID 3-GA (replicate ID 3-GA-2). Reference samples consist of the Stratagene Universal Reference (10 cellines), commercially obtained from Stratagene, La Jolla, CA, USA.

Project description:Comprehensive molecular classification for adenocarcinoma of gastroesophageal junction between esophageal and gastric adenocarcinomas
Project description:Samples were obtained from 8 patients with Barrett's associated adenocarcinomas after transhiatal esophagectomy. Samples representative of the normal esophageal epithelium (N), Barrett’s esophagus (B) and esophageal adenocarcinomas (ADC) were obtained from every patient by experienced GI pathologists. RNA were extracted and samples were profiled for detection of genes differentially expressed in B and ADC relative to N and in ADC relative to B. Keywords: other
