英文摘要：

Objective To identify metastasis-associated genes in tongue carcinoma and to better understand the mechanism underlying tongue carcinoma metastasis. To compared mRNA expression profiles of two tongue carcinoma cell strains with high and low metastatic potentials using microarray technology. Methods Tca8113 and Tb cells were used as model systems to study the molecular mechanism of tumor metastasis. Two fluorescent eDNA probes labeled with Cy3 and Cy5 dyes were prepared from the mRNA samples of Tea8113 and Tb cells by reverse transcription method. The two color probes were then mixed and hybridized to the eDNA chip constructed by double dots of 1 152 human genes, and scanned at two wave lengths. Differential expression genes from the above two cell lines were analyzed using computer. Then six of the different expression genes were further validated by RT-PCR technique. Results In the 1152 clones of known genes and expressed sequence tags that were analyzed, 37 showed significantly different （minimum 2 folds） expression levels in two cell lines. Among the 37 genes, 15 were up regulated （with ratio more than 2） and 22 down regulated （with ratio less than 1/2）. The results of RT-PCR analysis were coincident with those of micrearray assay. Conclusion Some of these genes are known to be involved in human tumor antigen, immune surveillance, adhesion, cell signaling pathway and growth control. It is suggested that the micrearray in combination with a relevant analysis facilitates rapid and simultaneous identification of multiple genes of interests and in this study it provided a profound clue to screen candidate targets for early diagnosis and intervention.
