Abstract:
Objective To establish a small liver cancer biobank with a standard operating procedure and the function of informationized management. Methods According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, blood, tissue, and stool samples were collected from the patients with liver cancer who attended Liver Surgery Center, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, from August 2012 to December 2020 and signed the informed consent. In-and-out-of-storage management was performed based on the standard procedure for whole blood, serum, frozen tissue, paraffin-embedded tissue, and stool samples, and related clinical and follow-up data were collected. The frozen samples of liver cancer tissue and adjacent tissue in different years were randomly selected, and the concentration and completeness of total RNA were examined to ensure the quality of frozen samples stored in the biobank. Results The samples were collected from 4190 liver cancer patients who underwent surgery within a period of 101 natural months, and there were 41718 frozen tissue samples, 18950 paraffin-embedded tissue samples, 24389 whole blood samples, 20060 serum samples, and 5392 stool samples. The liver cancer patients had an age range of 13-88 years, and male patients accounted for 85.1%. The patients with hepatitis B accounted for 83.3%, and those with liver cirrhosis accounted for 73.5%. A standard operating procedure and an electronic data capture system were developed according to the collection, processing, storage, application, and informationized management of samples. Among the 18 frozen tissue samples randomly selected from the biobank, 16 samples had high RNA quality, which could meet the requirements of subsequent experiments. Conclusion A standardized and informationized biobank has been established for liver cancer, which provides high-quality samples for the basic research on liver cancer and helps to explore the research value of samples.
