<h4>Background</h4>Gene-expression microarrays and RNA interferences (RNAi) are among the most prominent techniques in functional genomics. The combination of the two holds promise for systematic, large-scale dissection of transcriptional networks. Recent studies, however, raise the concern that nonspecific responses to small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) might obscure the consequences of silencing the gene of interest, throwing into question the ability of this experimental strategy to achieve prec ...[more]
