cDNA microarray detection of 208 lung cancer-related genes in seven samples of lung squamous cell carcinoma
Abstract:AIM:To investigate the differences in the expressions of lung cancer- related genes in seven tissue specimens of lung squamous cell carcinoma by means of cDNA microarray technique,so as to provide molecular information for the treatment and prognostic assessment of the patients. METHODS:The total RNA of 7 lung squamous cell carcinomas tissues samples was extracted, reverse transcripted and fluorescent- labeled to be used as probes through LD- PCR.Hybridization of the probes with the cDNA chip that contained 208 lung cancer- related genes was performed,the results analyzed using imagene software. RESULTS: The 7 samples share a similarity ranging from 60.65% to 82.69% in the expressions of 208 lung cancer- related genes. CONCLUSION:It is identified for the first time that the gene expression profiles might differ in certain aspect among different lung squamous cell carcinomas,a fact that justifies more individualized diagnosis and treatment of the cancer patients.
