Antibody arrays: technical considerations and clinical applications in cancer.
Antibody arrays represent one of the high-throughput techniques that are able to detect multiple proteins simultaneously. One of the main advantages of this technology over other proteomic approaches is that the identities of the measured proteins are known or can be readily characterized, allowing a biological interpretation of the results. Features such as lower sample volume and antibody con...
متن کاملAllele-specific expression of TGFBR1 in colon cancer patients
The genetic component of colorectal cancer (CRC) predisposition has been only partially explained. We recently suggested that a subtle decrease in the expression of one allele of the TGFBR1 gene was a heritable quantitative trait predisposing to CRC. Here, we refined the measurements of allele-specific expression (ASE) of TGFBR1 in a population-based series of CRC patients and controls. Five si...
متن کاملAllele-specific gene expression uncovered.
Genetic variation in populations can result in variation in levels of gene expression but the extent to which this occurs has been unclear. In this article, recent studies of allele-specific expression among autosomal non-imprinted genes are reviewed. These new data provide evidence that differential expression is relatively common and that allelic differences are heritable and can be highly co...
متن کاملHemoglobin A1c: Clinical applications and analytical considerations
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is the most common disorder of carbohydrate metabolism. Hyperglycemia is the common feature of DM. Hyperglycemia causes cardiovascular, renal, ocular, and peripheral nerve disorders in patients with diabetes. Glycemic regulation plays an essential role in controlling these complications. Thus, evaluation of the glycemic control status is crucial in the management of DM. H...
متن کاملTitle: Allele-specific Disparity in Breast Cancer
This paper presented the authors' search for allele-specific disparity in breast cancer using paired blood tumor samples from a large cohort of breast cancer patients in different stages. Using a workflow/algorithm developed in this paper using B-allele frequency and log R ratio of Illumina SNP data to estimate Euclidean distances, the authors were able to detect SNPs with substantial differenc...
