Popis: Previously we have identified that the expression number and levels of oncogenes and antioncogenes are highly positively or negatively associated with major cellular progress in a cancer cell. However, we have not defined any cellular potentials of a human tumor cell at the level of the overall gene expression. Here, we counted the overall number of expression genes and overall counts of mRNA in depth and revealed that the expression levels of mRNA were directly associated with the expression number of genes in a human tumor cell. Gene expression networks revealed steady states of tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and ATP production, differentiation potentials that might be disturbed and blocked by uncertain gene expressing networks, and potential capabilities to undergo epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), neurogenesis, angiogenesis, inflammatory response, immune evasion, and metastasis in a human tumor cell. Our analysis identifies unpredictable gene expression characteristics in human tumor cells. The results might profoundly influence mechanisms how a human tumor cell generates and undergoes its progresses.
