Transcriptome analysis of hepatocellular carcinoma and adjacent non-tumor liver tissues [II]
To study its expression and regulatory functions in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression, whole transcriptome RNA sequencing in paired HCC tumor and adjacent non-tumor liver tissue samples from 3 local Hispanic patients was performed. Overall design: Three tumor-normal pairs of HCC samples were profiled using high-throughput RNA sequencing techniques and their relative gene expression levels were compared.
