Project description:Study goal is to disclose features of gene expressio profile of non-cancerous liver-infiltrating lymphocytes of type C hepatitis patients with hepatocellular carcinomas and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes of type C hepatitis patients with hepatocellular carcinomas. Keywords: gene expression profile, non-cancerous liver-infiltrating lymphocytes, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, type C hepatitis, hepatocellular carcinoma Non-cancerous liver-infiltrating lymphocytes were obtained by laser capture microdissection from surgically resected liver tissues of 12 type C hepatitis patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. The mRNA was amplified and expression profile was comprehensively analyzed with reference RNA using oligo-DNA chip. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes were obtained by laser capture microdissection from surgically resected cancer tissues of 12 type C hepatitis patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. The mRNA was amplified and expression profile was comprehensively analyzed with reference RNA using oligo-DNA chip.

Project description:A quantitative label-free proteome analysis was performed using plasma samples from 22 hepatitis-C virus (HCV)-induced liver cirrhosis patients, 16 HCV-positive hepatocellular carcinoma patients with underlying cirrhosis and 18 healthy controls. Plasma microparticles (PMPS) were isolated using ultracentrifugation and analyzed via label-free LC-MS/MS.

Project description:The potential significance of plasma extracellular vesicle-derived miRNAs in non-hepatitis B-, non-hepatitis C-related hepatocellular carcinoma as biomarker for the diseases was explored.
Project description:SETDB1 is an epigenetic regulator via H3K9me3. Much is not known about the role of SETDB1 in hepatocellular carcinoma. In this study, we established an shRNA-based Setdb1-knockdown strain in the mouse hepatocellular carcinoma line Hepa1-6 and performed RNA sequencing to identify genes regulated by Setdb1.
Project description:Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection could cause hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. HBV-mediated pathogenesis is only partially understood, but X protein (HBx) reportedly possesses oncogenic potential. Exosomes are small membrane vesicles with diverse functions released by various cells including hepatocytes, and HBV harnesses cellular exosome biogenesis and export machineries for virion morphogenesis and secretion. Therefore, HBV infection might cause changes in exosome contents with functional implications for both virus and host. In this project, exosome protein content changes induced by HBV and HBx were quantitatively analyzed by SILAC/LC-MS/MS. Exosomes prepared from SILAC-labeled hepatoma cell line Huh-7 transfected with HBx, wildtype or HBx-null HBV replicon plasmids were analyzed by LC-MS/MS.
Project description:Using CapitalBio Technology Human CircRNA Array v2 (4x180K) microarray, we compared the expression of circular RNAs in the plasma from five hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma patients and five chronic hepatitis B patients.
