Gene expression profiling identifies molecular classifiers of ovarian cancer

Published in Women's Health Weekly, April 6th, 2006

A recent study from Canada has reported that gene expression profiling of primary cultures of ovarian epithelial cells identifies novel molecular classifiers of ovarian cancer.

"In order to elucidate the biological variance between normal ovarian surface epithelial (NOSE) and epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) cells, and to build a molecular classifier to discover new markers distinguishing these cells, we analysed gene expression patterns of 65 primary cultures of these tissues by oligonucleotide microarray," wrote C. Lepage and colleagues, University of Montreal. "Unsupervised clustering highlights three subgroups of tumours: low malignant potential tumours, invasive...
