MIR4435-2HG in exosomes promotes gastric carcinogenesis by inducing M2 polarization in macrophages

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
Gastric cancer (GC) is a cancer with a high mortality rate. lncRNAs play a role in regulating GC tumorigenesis. In this paper, we analyzed differentially expressed lncRNAs between GC and adjacent normal tissues using multiple bioinformatics tools to ...

On the utility of RNA sample pooling to optimize cost and statistical power in RNA sequencing experiments [PDF]

, 2020
Background: In gene expression studies, RNA sample pooling is sometimes considered because of budget constraints or lack of sufficient input material. Using microarray technology, RNA sample pooling strategies have been reported to optimize both the cost
