Methods 
    Tissues and mRNA isolation:

    Patients gave informal consent to participant in these studies before the surgery. All tissues were surgically resected, snap frozen in liquid nitrogen within a half hour after the resection, and stored in -80oC. In most of the cases, both tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissues were collected. Total RBA was extracted with RNeasy kit (Qiagne) and mRNA was isolated from total RNA using FastTrack (Invitorgen) or Poly(A)Pure (Ambion) mRNA purification kit. mRNA from cell lines was purified directly with FastTrack (Invitrogen) kit. We combined mRNA from the following cells, in equal quantities, to make the reference pool: 
    HepG2: HCC cell line
    SNU398: HCC cell line
    SNU1: Gastric adenocarcinoma cell line
    Jurkat: T-cell line
    RPMI: B-cell line
    CCD-1070SK: Fibroblast cell line
