Gene expression changes in blood RNA after swimming ...

Expression profile differences were determined between total RNA extracted before and after exposure to trihalomethanes present in swimming pool water for 40 minute from whole blood samples from 33 healthy human individuals.

Gene expression data of skin from psoriatic patients...

We extracted total RNA from punch biopsies taken from 58 psoriatic patients and 64 normal healthy controls. Two biopsies were taken from each patient; one 6mm punch biopsy was obtained from lesional skin of each patient (involved sample) and the other from non-lesional skin (uninvolved sample), taken at least 10 cm away from any active plaque. One biopsy was obtained from each healty control. Totally 180 samples were run on Affymetrix HU133 Plus 2.0 microarrays containing >54,000 gene probes....

Gene expression in RNP autoantibody+ systemic lupus ...

mRNA from the blood of a SLE cohort (79 patients with some repeat visits for a total of 99 arrays) and 30 healthy volunteers (one array per volunteer) were analyzed.

Gene expression in psoriasis lesions and uninvolved skin

Four individuals with chronic plaque psoriasis were enrolled. 6 mm punch biopsies were obtained under local anaesthesia (lidocaine) from uninvolved skin and a target plaque.

Gene expression in rheumatoid arthritis synovial macrophages

Macrophages from synovial fluids of five RA patients were isolated by ficoll density gradient centrifugation, followed by positive selection of CD14+ cells using magnetic beads. The patients’ diagnoses were determined by their physicians, in each case a Board-certified rheumatologist at the Hospital for Special Surgery, and were definite RA according to American College of Rheumatology criteria. De-identified samples were processed in an anonymous manner using a protocol approved by the Insti...

Gene expression profiles associated with acute myoca...

338 individuals in the Emory Cardiovascular Biobank in Midtown Atlanta., 219 men and 119 women. The age of individulas were between 26 and 85 (mean 62). 333 Caucasian (CAU), 4 African American (AFA), 1 South Asian (SAS).

Gene expression profiles in synovial biopsies from p...

GeneChip® Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays (Affymetrix UK Ltd., High Wycombe, UK) were hybridized in monoplicates with 10 μg biotinylated cRNA, using synovial biopsy samples obtained in 4 patients with SA (based on the presence of psoriasis or x-ray evidence of sacro-iliacal joint involvement), 5 patients with MIC, based on the identification of urate or calcium pyrophosphate crystals in the synovial fluid, 7 patients with RA (ACR 1987 criteria), 4 patients with SLE (ACR criteria) and 5 pati...

Gene expression profiling and correlation with outco...

Purified myeloma samples were collected prior to enrolment in clinical trials of bortezomib (PS-341). Samples were subject to replicate gene expression profiling using the Affymetrix 133A/B microarray. Data was normalized in MAS5.0 and the median of replicates is reported. Data was normalized to a Ttimmed mean of 15o and is NOT log transformed. Various patient parameters are reported as well as response, TTP and survival upon treatment with bortezomib or dexamethasone.*** The authors have no...
