| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs; more than 200 nucleotides in length) are endogenous RNAs that do not code for functional proteins. Identifying tissue-specific lncRNAs is the first step toward understanding their biological functions and applying them to diagnostic and therapeutic tools. Using next-generation sequencing technologies (Illumina MiSeq and HiSeq), we performed RNA profiling of biliary duct cancer cells and their cell lines to elucidate the characteristics of the lncRNAs expressed in biliary duct cancer.
