However, the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer risk of CC are unknown. We sought to identify the gene expression changes underlying the cancer risk of CC patients.  \nMethods  \nLiver organoids (n = 51) were generated from liver/bile duct biopsies of CC (n = 7; type I) and hepatoblastoma (n = 5; HB: non-tumor & tumor) for RNA sequencing. Bioinformatics analysis was conducted to identify differentially expressed cancer-related genes in CC and controls. We compared CC with non-cancerous and cancerous controls, normal adjacent non-tumor region of hepatoblastoma (HB) liver as non-cancerous control and tumor region as non-CC cancer control (HB-tumor) . Reverse transcription real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) verification and immunohistochemistry of selected genes was conducted in additional CC and HB liver biopsies.  \nFindings  \nHB non-tumor and HB tumor organoids displayed distinct gene expression profiles. Expression profiling separated CC organoids into two clusters, one overlapping with HB non-tumor and the other one with HB tumor organoids. Genes selected based on their log2FoldChange values for RT-qPCR verification in 31 CC and 11 HB non-tumor liver tissues revealed significantly elevated expression of FGFR2 in 7 and CEBPB in 2 CC liver tissues (CC vs HB:  \nreceptor 2; CEBPB, CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta; RNAseq, RNA sequencing.  \n4.082 vs. 0.7671, p\u003C0.01; 2.506 vs. 1.210, p\u003C0.01) . Distinctive positive staining in bile ducts were seen in CC, HB tumor and non-tumor liver tissues for FGFR2 and CEBPB.
