Genes involved in the progression of pancreatic cancer. The goal of this example was to query the differentially expressed information for pancreatic tumour stages (pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasias and pancreatic adenocarcinoma) and to retrieve the genes found to be de-regulated in the progression of pancreatic cancer. 1. Filter: one can choose "Pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasias (PanIN-2) vs normal pancreas ND (microdissected normal ductal cells)", "Pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasias (PanIN-3) vs normal pancreas ND (microdissected normal ductal cells)" and "Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) vs normal pancreas NP (bulk tissu e)" from the filter section "GENES DIFFERENTIALLY EXPRESSED IN:". 2. Attributes: one can choose the "General Gene Features" attribute page, expand the attribute section "PANCREATIC EXPRESSION" to remove "Gene Symbol", "Differential Expression Analysis" and "Direction of Regulation" default options, expand the attribute section "GENE" and select "Description" under "Ensembl Attributes". 3. Results: Clicking the "Count" button in the tool bar returns 10 genes involved in the progression of pancreatic cancer.
