Gene Expression Profiling Reveals Upregulated <i>UCA1</i> and <i>BMF</i> in Gallbladder Epithelia of Children With Pancreaticobiliary Maljunction
17 May 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pancreaticobiliary maljunction is usually associated with choledochal cysts and often causes biliary carcinoma; however, the mechanism of carcinogenesis remains unknown. No study has analyzed overall changes in genetic expression beginning during childhood in gallbladder epithelia with pancreaticobiliary maljunction. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The genomewide expression of gallbladder epithelia was analyzed...
