Abstract

As a step towards understanding the complex differences between normal cells and cancer cells, we have used suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) to generate a profile of genes overexpressed in primary colorectal cancer (CRC). From a 35 000 clone SSH‐cDNA repertoire, we have screened 400 random clones by reverse Northern blotting, of which 45 clones were scored as overexpressed in tumor compared to matched normal mucosa. Sequencing showed 37 different genes and of these, 16 genes corresponded to known genes in the public databases. Twelve genes, including Smad5 and Fls353, have previously been shown to be overexpressed in CRC. A series of known genes which have not previously been reported to be overexpressed in cancer were also recovered: Hsc70, PBEF, ribophorin II and Ese‐3B. The remaining 21 genes have as yet no functional annotation. These results show that SSH in conjunction with high throughput screening provides a very efficient means to produce a broad profile of genes differentially expressed in cancer. Some of the genes identified may provide novel points of therapeutic intervention.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
