Gene set: EPITHELIAL_UP_ZUCCHI (C2:PERT:0114)
Standard nameEPITHELIAL_UP_ZUCCHI
Systematic nameC2:PERT:0114
Brief descriptionThe 50 most upregulated genes in primary invasive breast dutcal carcinoma or metastatic breast carcinoma isolated from lymph nodes, as compared to normal mammary epithelium.
CategoryC2: Curated
Sub-categoryPERT: Experimental pertuberation
Full description or Abstract
Expression profiles of breast carcinomas are difficult to interpret
when they are obtained from tissue in toto, which may contain
a large proportion of non-cancer cells. To avoid this problem,
we microscopically isolated cells from a primary invasive ductal
carcinoma of the breast and from an axillary node harboring a
metastatic breast carcinoma, to obtain pure populations of carcinoma
cells (approximately 500) and used them for serial analysis of
gene expression. The expression profiles generated from both populations
of cells were compared with the profile of a disease-free mammary
epithelium. We showed that the expression profiles obtained are
exclusive of carcinoma cells with no contribution of non-epithelial
cells. From a total of 16,939 unique tags analyzed, we detected
559 statistically significant changes in gene expression; some
of these genes have not been previously associated with breast
cancer. We observed that many of the down-regulated genes are
the same in both cancers, whereas the up-regulated genes are completely
different, suggesting that the down-regulation of a set of genes
may be the basic mechanism of cancer formation, while the up-regulation
may characterize and possibly control the state of evolution of
individual cancers. The results obtained may help in characterizing
the neoplastic process of breast cancer.
