Aneuploidy-Dependent Massive Deregulation of the Cellular Transcriptome and Apparent Divergence of the Wnt/β-catenin Signaling Pathway in Human Rectal Carcinomas
1 Jan 2006
Abstract excerpt
To identify genetic alterations underlying rectal carcinogenesis, we used global gene expression profiling of a series of 17 locally advanced rectal adenocarcinomas and 20 normal rectal mucosa biopsies on oligonucleotide arrays. A total of 351 genes were differentially expressed (P < 1.0e-7) between normal rectal mucosa and rectal carcinomas, 77 genes had a >5-fold difference, and 85 genes always had at least a...
