Project description:Main purpose of this study is through comparing with the external control, evaluation of autologous D - CIK cells immunotherapy to finish after conventional treatment of liver cancer, renal clear cell carcinoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, lung cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer patients with the clinical efficacy and safety of study population, including clinical liver, renal clear cell carcinoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, lung cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer after conventional treatment (surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy) patients.The primary outcome measures were overall survival and progression-free survival, while the secondary outcome measures were overall response rate and quality of life.
Project description:Aberrant DNA methylation is common in cancer. To associate DNA methylation with gene function, we performed RNAseq upon tumor tissue and matched normal tissues of two ccRCC (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) patients. To quantify 5mC and 5hmC level in each CG site at genome-wide level, we performed BS-seq and TAB-seq upon tumor tissue and matched normal tissues of two ccRCC (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) patients, respectively. mRNA profiles of tumor and matched normal tissues from two ccRCC patients were generated by deep sequencing, using Hiseq 2000. Single-nucleotide-resolution, whole-genome, 5mC and 5hmC profiles of tumor and matched normal tissues from two ccRCC (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) patients were generated by deep sequencing, using Hiseq 2000.
Project description:The aim of this study was to compare effect of everolimus on growth of different renal cell carcinoma (RCC) populations and develop design for experiments to measure the early response of everolimus in clear cell RCC (ccRCC) cell lines including renal cancer stem cells. Gene expression profiling using microarray was performed to determine the early response to everolimus after 3 days of treatment with optimizied concentration of drug in two ccRCC cell lines 1) parental clear cell renal cell carcinoma ccRCC-PCSC (HKPCSC -human parental kidney cancer stem cells) and 2) ccRCC-CSC - clear cell renal cell carcinoma -cancer stem cells (HKCSC - human kidney cancer stem cells).
Project description:Non-coding RNAs play an important role in the pathogenesis of human malignancies. So far, microRNAs have been investigated in detail in clear cell renal cell carcinoma, but the knowledge about other small non-coding RNAs like snoRNA, tRNA and piRNA remains small. There is increasing evidence that these non-coding RNAs are also involved in regulation of gene expression, and we therefore performed small RNA sequencing in a cohort of 18 corresponding normal and malignant tissue samples from patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma. We observed differential expression of microRNAs, but also some dysregulated tRNA and snoRNA in clear cell renal cell carcinoma tissue
Project description:Clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma (CCPRCC) is a low-grade renal neoplasm with morphological characteristics mimicking both clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC) and papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC). However, despite some overlapping features, their morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular profiles are distinct. To better understand the biology of this tumor, we analyze the miRNA expression profiles of a set of CCPRCC by microarrays.
Project description:To understand the relationship of radiomic and transcriptomic features of metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma, we performed RNA-sequencing in clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCCs).
