[0117] Dysregulation of miRNA expression in human gastric cancer

[0118] The majority of gastric adenocarcinomas occur in the setting of a chronic inflammatory background commonly associated with Helicobacter Pylori (HP) infection (Uemura et al., 2001). However, the molecular mechanisms responsible for the oncogenicity of HP remain unclear, although Th1 immune responses appear to be critical in the development of precancerous lesions such as gastric atrophy and intestinal metaplasia (Houghton et al., 2002; Fox et al., 2000).

[0119] In the search for miRNAs that may be involved in gastric tumorigenesis, we analyzed 20 intestinal-type gastric primary tumors (each paired with adjacent non-neoplastic gastric tissue from the same patient) and 6 gastric primary tumors using custom-made miRNA microarrays. Overall miRNA expression in gastric cancer cell lines. To identify specific alterations associated with inflammation and / or premalignant lesions, we first compared non-neoplasti...

Embodiment II

[0190] Tissue samples:

[0191] Primary gastric tumor samples were obtained from the Department of Histopathology (Sant'Andrea Hospital, University of Rome "La Sapienza", Italy). All samples had patient informed consent and were histologically confirmed. The protocol used to obtain the tissues was approved by the Sant'Andrea Hospital Bioethical Committee. Each tumor was paired with a non-tumor gastric mucosal control from the same patient.

[0192] Microarray:

[0193] Microarray analysis was performed as described (Liu et al., 2004). Briefly, 5ug of total RNA was used for hybridization on a generation 2 miRNA microarray chip (V2). These chips contain gene-specific 40-mer oligonucleotide probes for 250 human miRNAs spotted by contact technology and covalently attached to a polymer matrix. Hybridize the microarray in 6X SSPE (0.9M NaCl_60mM NaH2PO4_H2O_8mM EDTA, pH 7.4), 30% formamide for 18 hours at 25°C and wash in 0.75X TNT (Tris / HCl / NaCl / Tween 20) at 37°C 40 min and t...
