Abstract

Cell migration plays the essential role in embryogenesis, wound healing, immunization, infection, and cancer metastasis. To study actions of cell migration-associated genes in liver regeneration, these genes were obtained by seaching for the related databases and literatures, and comprehensive analysis for the gene expression change during the regenerating process in liver was detected by Rat Genome 230 2.0 array, and identification of the LR-associated genes was through comparing the discrepancy in gene expression between sham operation and partial hepatectomy groups. The initially and totally expressed numbers of these genes in the initial phase of LR, G0/G1 transition, cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and structural-functional reconstruction were 88, 16, 79, 9, and 177, 90, 632, 207, respectively, illustrating that the associated genes triggered their expression mainly in the priming stage, and worked in different phases. Their expression similarity was classified into five groups and their expression patterns were categorized into 38 types, and the overall times of up-regulation and down-regulation were 589 and 427. Based on expression profiles and expression patterns of cell migration-associated genes in LR, it was confirmed that cell migration-associated genes rise in mRNA levels.
