Investigators have two important questions to consider when evaluating microarray expression data. First, they must ask whether the results are valid—in other words, accurate—for the particular ...

Gene expression microarray experiments are intrinsically two-phase experiments. Messenger RNA (mRNA), required for the microarray experiment, must first be derived from plants or animals that are ...

Results generated with the use of microarrays should be properly described and deposited in one of the public databases prior to review. We examine the last two years of the journal's publications in ...

Lecture Notes-Monograph Series, Vol. 54, Complex Datasets and Inverse Problems: Tomography, Networks and Beyond (2007), pp. 92-102 (11 pages) DNA microarray experiments, a well-established ...

Now that gene expression microarray experiments are routine, the challenge is to extract accurate intelligence from the data they produce. The problem isn’t inaccuracies in the analysis software or ...

A new study by 64 renowned scientists may bring us one step closer to personalized medical treatment--that is, medical treatment tailored to each person's unique genetic make-up and medical condition.

A standard Internet protocol that checks errors made during email transmissions has now inspired a revolutionary method to transform DNA microarray analysis, a common technology used to understand ...

In each type of cell, like a muscle cell or a skin cell, different genes are expressed (turned on) or silenced (turned off). If the cells that are turned on mutate, they could—depending on what role ...

A new study by 64 renowned scientists may bring us one step closer to personalized medical treatment -- that is, medical treatment tailored to each person's unique genetic make-up and medical ...

Scientific advances in the field of genetics and gene-expression profiling have revolutionized the concept of patient-tailored treatment. Analysis of differential gene-expression patterns across ...

The research community's rapid acceptance of microarrays notwithstanding, technical challenges remain. Biochip developers continue to grapple with these issues while upgrading their offerings and ...

Geographic atrophy due to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible blindness and affects more than 5 million persons worldwide. No therapies to restore vision in ...
