Project description:To identifythe the functional roles and the pathophysiological contributions of coding genes and noncoding RNAs in human hepatic carcinogenesis, we analysed the differenial expression of genes and noncoding RNAs in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues and the corresponding non-cancerous tissues. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in human hepatocellular carcinomas and correponding non-cancerous tissues.
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.
