Abstract

cDNA clones complementary to mRNA of neoplastic cells of human stomach tissue were used to examine quantitative changes in the mRNA levels of specific genes in neoplastic cells. Poly(A)+ RNA from poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma cells of a female patient with stomach cancer was used for construction of a complementary DNA (cDNA) library. Screening of the 18,000 colonies utilizing 32P-cDNAs derived from normal human tissue and stomach carcinoma tissue samples was used to select clones likely to represent sequences preferentially expressed in stomach carcinoma cells. Twenty-six recombinants were initially selected and further analysis of these clones indicated that eight (4-3D, 9-2D, 9-4G, 29-1G, 29-6F, 37-1B, 115-5A and 52-5F) contain sequences preferentially expressed in stomach carcinoma cells. We have identified the 9-4G, 29-1A, and 29-6F genes which are differentially expressed in human neoplasia.
