Design Considerations for Biomarker Studies
Improved understanding of cancer biology and advances in biotechnology bring us closer to the concept of personalized treatment of cancer. A key component of this new paradigm is development of biomarkers that can guide application of new and existing treatments. This requires a thorough understanding of the relationship between the biomarker and the treatment effect. Traditionally, most random...
متن کاملStatistical Considerations of Optimal Study Design for Human Plasma Proteomics and Biomarker Discovery
A mass spectrometry-based plasma biomarker discovery workflow was developed to facilitate biomarker discovery. Plasma from either healthy volunteers or patients with pancreatic cancer was 8-plex iTRAQ labeled, fractionated by 2-dimensional reversed phase chromatography and subjected to MALDI ToF/ToF mass spectrometry. Data were processed using a q-value based statistical approach to maximize pr...
متن کاملDiscoveries in shRNA Design
To successfully apply RNAi, the very first step is to design functional siRNA or shRNA sequences targeting specific genes. Many characteristics of functional synthetic siRNAs have been identified, but it remains questionable if these characteristics can be equally applied to the design of functional shRNAs. Our three-phase algorithm was developed based on the characteristics of functional siRNA...
متن کامل3-D RF Coil Design Considerations for MRI
High-frequency coils are widely used in medical applications, such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems. A typical medical MRI includes a local radio frequency transmit/receive coil. This coil is designed for maximum energy transfer or wave transfer through magnetic resonance. Mutual inductance is a dynamic parameter that determines the energy quantity to be transferred wirelessly by ele...
متن کاملBiomarkers in occupational cancer epidemiology: considerations in study design.
Epidemiologic studies of occupational groups have been central to the identification of human carcinogens. The incorporation of a biochemical component into occupational studies of cancer can expand the possibilities for identifying human carcinogens and for understanding the disease process. Two epidemiologic studies of occupation and cancer which include evaluation of biomarkers are described...
