title: [Preliminary biomarker related to nasopharyngeal carcinoma filtered from the whole genome expression profiling involved in microdissection nasopharyngeal tissues].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To filter biomarkers of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) by constructing the homogenesis tissue gene expression profiling with the whole human genome GeneChip.
  
  
  METHODS
  The epithelium cells of the homogenesis NPC and the pure nasopharyngeal normal tissues microdissected from nasopharyngeal biopsy which was preserved in the RNAlater were used to isolate RNA and then to harvest the aRNA through in vitro transcription, and aRNA prober was labled to hybridize to HG-U133. plus 2.0, so the expression profiling of each homogenesis tissue could be constructed.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Some candidate biomarker genes related to the tumorigenesis of NPC had been filtered by comparing the expression profiling of NPC samples with the expression profiling of normal nasopharyngeal epithelia samples. Any genes regarding the metastasis of NPC might have been selected by comparing the expression profiling of no-metastasis samples with those of the metastasis samples.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Using the whole genome GeneChip to construct the expression profiling for the microdissected homogenesis tissue is effective to filter the candidate biomarker genes.
