We are currently receiving a large number of applications for data submission, and the review process is taking longer than usual.We sincerely apologize for the delay and kindly ask for your understanding. When submitting an application, we would greatly appreciate it if you could allow sufficient time for the processing.

Following a change to our organizational structure effective April 1, 2026, this division has been renamed from the "Database Center for Life Science, Joint Support-Center for Data Science Research" to the "Database Division for Life Science (DBCLS), BioData Science Initiative (BSI), National Institute of Genetics (NIG)". Where the former name still appears in the guidelines, please read it as the new name.

Research title

Whole-genome and whole-exome analyses of cancer

Research overview

Aims
We perform integrative genome-wide analyses such as whole-exome sequencing, epigenome analysis, copy number variant (CNV) analysis, and gene expression analysis using next-generation sequencing and other methods to elucidate driver genes and signaling pathways causing tumorigenesis and cancer progression, leading novel molecular diagnostics and molecular therapies.
Methods
Whole-exome sequencing, RNA-sequencing
Participants/materials
Whole-exome sequencing, Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, tumor and paired non-tumor, 88 pairs; RNA-sequencing, Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, tumor and paired non-tumor, 57 pairs
