The Connectivity Map: using gene-expression signatures to connect small molecules, genes, and disease.
نویسندگان
چکیده
To pursue a systematic approach to the discovery of functional connections among diseases, genetic perturbation, and drug action, we have created the first installment of a reference collection of gene-expression profiles from cultured human cells treated with bioactive small molecules, together with pattern-matching software to mine these data. We demonstrate that this "Connectivity Map" resource can be used to find connections among small molecules sharing a mechanism of action, chemicals and physiological processes, and diseases and drugs. These results indicate the feasibility of the approach and suggest the value of a large-scale community Connectivity Map project.

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the leading causes of cancer mortality, worldwide. Molecular understanding of GC’s different subtypes is still dismal and it is necessary to develop new subtype-specific diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. Therefore developing comprehensive research in this area is demanding to have a deeper insight into molecular processes, underlying these subtypes. In this st...
متن کاملGlobal gene expression analysis using microarray to study differential vulnerability to neurodegeneration
Neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, motor neuron disease and Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by loss of specific cells within certain regions of the brain. One of the most compelling questions is to determine why specific cell populations are vulnerable to neurodegeneration. We addressed this question by studying global gene expression changes using an animal model of ...

متن کاملStudy of Gene Expression Signatures for the Diagnosis of Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) Through Gene Expression Array Analyses
Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) as the most common malignancy in children is associated with high mortality and significant relapse. Currently, the non-invasive diagnosis of pediatric ALL is a main challenge in the early detection of patients. In the present study, a systems biology approach was used through network-based analysis to identify the key candidate genes related to AL...
