Experimental designs for array comparative genomic hybridization technology.
Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) technology is commonly used to estimate genome-wide copy-number variation and to evaluate associations between copy number and disease. Although aCGH technology is well developed and there are numerous algorithms available for estimating copy number, little attention has been paid to the important issue of the statistical experimental design. Herei...
متن کاملArray comparative genomic hybridization in male infertility.
BACKGROUND Male infertility caused by a maturation arrest of spermatogenesis is a condition with an abrupt stop in spermatogenesis, mostly at the level of primary spermatocytes. The etiology remains largely unknown. METHODS We focused on patients with a complete arrest at the spermatocyte level (n = 9) and used array comparative genomic hybridization to screen for deletions or duplications th...
متن کاملComputational Methods for the Analysis of Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization
Array comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) is a technique for assaying the copy number status of cancer genomes. The widespread use of this technology has lead to a rapid accumulation of high throughput data, which in turn has prompted the development of computational strategies for the analysis of array CGH data. Here we explain the principles behind array image processing, data visua...
متن کاملArray-based comparative genomic hybridization of circulating esophageal tumor cells.
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) shows a high frequency of lymphatic and/or systemic metastasis, even when the tumor invades only the submucosa. To investigate the genetic alterations in circulating esophageal tumor cells, we performed array-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis of 8 DNA samples of xenografts, which were previously established from the thoracic duct ly...
متن کاملArray-comparative genomic hybridization in sporadic benign pheochromocytomas.
Pheochromocytomas (PCC) are catecholamine-producing tumors arising from the adrenal medulla that occur either sporadically or in the context of hereditary cancer syndromes, such as multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2), von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL), neurofibromatosis type 1, and the PCC-paraganglioma syndrome. Conventional comparative genomic hybridization studies have shown loss of 1p ...
