How can you use “rcca” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
We evaluated the RNA expression profiles of renal cell carcinomas (RCCa) using the Affymetrix GeneChip platform, comparing mRNA expression profiles from a total of 21 human tissue samples and two pooled samples.
The prevalence of the scattered T cells within the CC tumors was somewhat surprising, but entirely consistent with the biology of response to a treatment for RCCa, interleukin 2 (IL-2), since IL-2 activates lymphocytes against the tumor [ 23 ] .
The genes CA 9 ( carbonic anhydrase IX ), CCND1 ( cyclin D1 ), CDH2 ( N-Cadherin ), EGFR ( epidermal growth factor receptor ) and TGFA ( tranforming growth factor alpha ) all showed increases in CC expression that matched the literature and had p-values ≤ 0.0061 [ 11 12 13 14 15 ] . The observed decrease in CDH1 ( E-cadherin ) in CC (p-value = 0.0045) also matched previously published reports, as did the decrease in VIM ( vimentin ) expression in Chr RCCa [ 13 16 ] . VIM was also found to be increased in CC with a p-value = 0.0045, which was consistent with the literature.
There exists considerable literature on the expressed genes and gene products associated with RCCa.
Pathology reports on these samples revealed that these were not RCCa samples but instead patient 20 was a papillary urothelial carcinoma and the sample from patient 18 was not a carcinoma but a benign metanephric adenoma.
