Project description:To measures the comparability and concordance of Illumina microarray, a series of 30 samples of Universal Human Reference RNA (UHRR) were set as controls for every single chip of total 30 Human-Ref V2 BeadChips. The average bead number of the 30 arrays was 42.3±8.1 for any bead type over the 22,184 probes. A high average correlation coefficient (r) value was obtained as 0.9908±0077 relative to each other of the expression intensity values from the 30 duplicate UHRR samples.

Project description:Rapidly growing public gene expression databases contain a wealth of data for building an unprecedentedly detailed picture of human biology and disease. This data comes from many diverse measurement platforms that make integrating it all difficult. Although RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) is attracting the most attention, at present, the rate of new microarray studies submitted to public databases far exceeds the rate of new RNA-seq studies. There is clearly a need for methods that make it easier to combine data from different technologies. In this paper, we propose a new method for processing RNA-seq data that yields gene expression estimates that are much more similar to corresponding estimates from microarray data, hence greatly improving cross-platform comparability. The method we call PREBS is based on estimating the expression from RNA-seq reads overlapping the microarray probe regions, and processing these estimates with standard microarray summarisation algorithms. Using paired microarray and RNA-seq samples from TCGA LAML data set we show that PREBS expression estimates derived from RNA-seq are more similar to microarray-based expression estimates than those from other RNA-seq processing methods. In an experiment to retrieve paired microarray samples from a database using an RNA-seq query sample, gene signatures defined based on PREBS expression estimates were found to be much more accurate than those from other methods. PREBS also allows new ways of using RNA-seq data, such as expression estimation for microarray probe sets. An implementation of the proposed method is available in the Bioconductor package "prebs."

Project description:The field of transcriptomics uses and measures mRNA as a proxy of gene expression. There are currently two major platforms in use for quantifying mRNA, microarray and RNA-Seq. Many comparative studies have shown that their results are not always consistent. In this study we aim to find a robust method to increase comparability of both platforms enabling data analysis of merged data from both platforms. We transformed high dimensional transcriptomics data from two different platforms into a lower dimensional, and biologically relevant dataset by calculating enrichment scores based on gene set collections for all samples. We compared the similarity between data from both platforms based on the raw data and on the enrichment scores. We show that the performed data transforms the data in a biologically relevant way and filters out noise which leads to increased platform concordance. We validate the procedure using predictive models built with microarray based enrichment scores to predict subtypes of breast cancer using enrichment scores based on sequenced data. Although microarray and RNA-Seq expression levels might appear different, transforming them into biologically relevant gene set enrichment scores significantly increases their correlation, which is a step forward in data integration of the two platforms. The gene set collections were shown to contain biologically relevant gene sets. More in-depth investigation on the effect of the composition, size, and number of gene sets that are used for the transformation is suggested for future research.

Project description:To facilitate collaborative research efforts between multi-investigator teams using DNA microarrays, we identified sources of error and data variability between laboratories and across microarray platforms and methods to accommodate this variability. RNA expression data were generated in seven laboratories, comparing two standard RNA samples using twelve microarray platforms. At least two standard microarray types (one spotted, one commercial) were used by all laboratories. Reproducibility for most platforms within any laboratory was typically good, but reproducibility between platforms and across laboratories was generally poor. Reproducibility between laboratories dramatically increased when standardized protocols were implemented for RNA labeling, hybridization, microarray processing, data acquisition and data normalization. Nonetheless, concordance could be found across different laboratories and platforms when data were analyzed in terms of enriched Gene Ontology categories. These findings indicate that microarray results generated by multiple sites and platforms can be comparable, and that multi-investigator teams will maximize data comparability by adopting a common platform and a common set of procedures to generate compatible data.

Project description:Until recently microarray experiments often involved relatively few arrays with only a single representation of each gene on each array. A complete genome microarray with multiple spots per gene (spread out spatially across the array) was developed in order to compare the gene expression of a marine cyanobacterium and a knockout mutant strain in a defined artificial seawater medium. Statistical methods were developed for analysis in the special situation of this case study where there is gene replication within an array and where relatively few arrays are used, which can be the case with current array technology. Due in part to the replication within an array, it was possible to detect very small changes in the levels of expression between the wild type and mutant strains. One interesting biological outcome of this experiment is the indication of the extent to which the phosphorus regulatory system of this cyanobacterium affects the expression of multiple genes beyond those strictly involved in phosphorus acquisition.

Project description:Additional toxicity testing and regulation are needed as the number of compounds chronically released into aquatic coastal environments increases. Decision makers require comprehensive and efficient screening tools to detect adverse biological effects and to identify their cause. Transcriptomic analysis can complement traditional ecotoxicology data by providing mechanistic insight, identifying sub-lethal organismal responses and identifying contaminant classes underlying observed toxicity. Before transcriptomic information is used in monitoring and risk assessment, it is necessary to determine its reproducibility and detect key steps that impact the reliable identification of differentially expressed genes. A custom 15K-probe microarray was used to conduct transcriptomics analyses across six laboratories. Estuarine amphipods were exposed to cyfluthrin-spiked or control sediments for 10 days. Two sample types were generated: the first consisted of total RNA extracts (Ex) from exposed and control samples (extracted by one laboratory) and the second type consisted of exposed and control whole body amphipods (WB) from which RNA was extracted by each laboratory. A subset of genes were consistently identified as differentially expressed across all laboratories and sample types. Genes with the highest magnitude of differential expression (> 2 fold) were more likely to be consistently identified as differentially expressed across laboratories. Differentially expressed data had a higher degree of concordance across all laboratories (W = 0.7) in samples with similar RNA quality (Ex) when compared to WB samples (W = 0.5). Our results revealed that several factors can affect data comparability including RNA sample preparation, labeling, instrumentation and technical expertise.
