Some oncogenes such as ERBB2 and EGFR are over-expressed in only a subset of patients. Cancer outlier profile analysis is one computational approaches to identify outliers gene expression data. A database with large sample size would be great advantage when searching for genes patients.GENT (Gene Expression Normal Tumor tissues) web-accessible that provides patterns across diverse human cancer normal tissues. More than 40000 samples, profiled by Affymetrix U133A or U133plus2 platforms many...

Skeletal muscle degenerates progressively, losing mass (sarcopenia) over time, which leads to reduced physical ability and often results in secondary diseases such as diabetes obesity. The regulation of gene expression by microRNAs is a key event development disease. To understand genome-wide changes mRNAs during aging, we sequenced from mouse gastrocnemius muscles at two different ages (6 24 months). Thirty-four (15 up-regulated 19 down-regulated) were differentially expressed with age,...

A large-scale, genome-wide association study was performed to identify genetic variations influencing serum bilirubin levels using 8841 Korean individuals. Significant associations were observed at UGT1A1 (rs11891311, P = 4.78 x 10(-148)) and SLCO1B3 (rs2417940, 1.03 10(-17)), which are two previously identified loci. The single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) replicated 3.18 10(-15)) or marginally significant 8.56 10(-4)) in an independent cohort of 1096 In a conditional analysis adjusted...

To examine the distribution of SSRs in genome Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis, from different genomic regions representing 17.7 Mb sequence were surveyed. appear more abundant non-coding (86.6%) than coding (13.4%). Comparison SSR densities demonstrated that density was greatest 5'-flanking predicted genes. The proportion repeat motifs varied between regions, with trinucleotide prevalent...

Long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) have historically been ignored in cancer biology. However, thousands of lincRNAs identified mammals using recently developed genomic tools, including microarray and high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Several the well characterized for their functions carcinogenesis. Here we performed RNA-seq experiments comparing gastric with normal tissues to find differentially expressed transcripts regions. By analyzing our own public data, 31 transcripts,...

Abstract DNA methylation is a regulatory mechanism in epigenetics that frequently altered during human carcinogenesis. To detect critical events associated with gastric cancer (GC), we compared three methylomes from mucosa (GM), intestinal metaplasia (IM), and tumor (GT) cells were microscopically dissected an intestinal-type early (EGC) using methylated binding domain sequencing (MBD-seq) reduced representation bisulfite (RRBS) analysis. In this study, focused on differentially promoters...
