Research Abstract

In 2001, we developed cDNA microarray and investigated gene expression profile of colorectal cancer. First, we selected non-redundant 4600 genes among 30000 cDNA library clones from cancer, normal, and liver metastais samples, plus 170 colon cancer related genes in literature. After analysis of clinical samples, we identified 23 genes overexpressed in cancer samples two times more than normal mucosa and 36 decreased genes to a half lesser extent. Expression of selected genes was confirmed by RT-PCR (coincidence:93%), data form SAGE (N=12, coincidence:83%) or in literature (N=15).
In 2002, we tested whether gene expression profile would predict liver when distinct samples of liver metastasis and found that the gene subsets successfully predicted liver metastasis in 85% cases. Now we are developing oligo-array for clinical application.
