Alterations of gene expression during colorectal carcinogenesis revealed by cDNA microarrays after laser-capture microdissection of tumor tissues and normal epithelia
Abstract
To identify a set of genes involved in the development of colorectal carcinogenesis, we compared expression profiles of colorectal cancer cells from eight tumors with corresponding noncancerous colonic epithelia using a DNA microarray consisting of 9216 human genes. These cell populations had been rendered homogeneous by laser-capture microdissection. Expression change in more than half of the tumors was observed for 235 genes, i.e., 44 up-regulated and 191 down-regulated genes. The differentially expressed genes include those associated with signal transduction, metabolizing enzymes, production of reactive oxygen species, cell cycle, transcription, mitosis, and apoptosis. Subsequent examination of 10 genes (five up-regulated and five down-regulated) by semiquantitative reverse transcription-PCR using the eight tumors together with an additional 12 samples substantiated the reliability of our analysis. The extensive list of genes identified in these experiments provides a large body of potentially valuable information of colorectal carcinogenesis and represents a source of novel targets for cancer therapy.
