Project description:External auditory canal squamous cell carcinoma (EACC) is very rare, only accounting for two thousandth of the head and neck cancer. However, the development mechanism of EACC remains unknown. By using gene expression microarray analysis, we aimed to find differentially expressed genes involved in ESCC development. We identified a wide spectrum of molecular signatures in EACC, including mRNA and lncRNA. The present study systematically analyzed the expression of mRNA and lncRNA in squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal and normal external auditory canal tissues. We detect the transcriptomic changes between squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal and normal external auditory canal tissues to identify potential tumor biomarkers in squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal.
Project description:Squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal (EACSCC) is an extraordinarily rare and aggressive malignant disease. Establishment of EACSCC cell line with robust molecular characteristics is essential for the basic and translational research of EACSCC. In this study, we showed the newly established EACSCC cell line SCEACono2, derived from a patient with well-to-moderately differentiated EACSCC. To elucidate the transctomic features of SCEACono2, we performed RNA-seq and revealed its unique characteristics and compared with publicly available head and neck squamous cell caricnoma (HNSCC)-derived cell lines HSC4 and SCC9.
