Schizophrenia is a common psychiatric disorder involving approximately 1% of the population worldwide. Family, twin, and adoption studies suggest genetic factors contribute to this illness (Lang et al ...
Definition: A microarray is a small, flat substrate carrying an ordered grid of microscopic probe features, each containing a known biological molecule, that is used to measure many molecular targets ...
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was developed to identify pathogenic DNA copy-number changes (e.g., duplications, deletions) on a genome-wide scale, and to map these changes to genomic ...
For the cell biologist, identifying changes in gene expression using DNA microarrays is just the start of a long journey from tissue to cell. We discuss how chip users can first filter noise ...
Impact of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) and amphiregulin (AREG) expressions on survival in patients with stage II/III gastric cancer enrolled in the ACTS-GC study. Multivariate ...
Companies in the microarray sector are trying to take the technology out of core facilities and put it into the hands of individual researchers by developing technologies such as smaller, less-costly ...
For most researchers DNA microarrays are synonymous with high-throughput gene expression analysis. But they also are invaluable genotyping tools. Now that the International HapMap Project (see article ...
