Project description:Using a large representative sample of postmenopausal women in the Norwegian Women and Cancer (NOWAC) postgenome study, we investigated blood gene expression changes due to intra-technical variability, normal inter-individuality (age, body mass index, fasting status), and exposure variables (smoking, hormone therapy and medication use) at proportion and level of real life situation revealing mechanistic insights of these effects mirrored in blood.

Project description:Using a large representative sample of postmenopausal women in the Norwegian Women and Cancer (NOWAC) postgenome study, we investigated blood gene expression changes due to intra-technical variability, normal inter-individuality (age, body mass index, fasting status), and exposure variables (smoking, hormone therapy and medication use) at proportion and level of real life situation revealing mechanistic insights of these effects mirrored in blood. We used a representative sample of postmenopausal women (N=286) in the NOWAC postgenome study. We investigated blood gene expression changes due to intra-technical variability, normal inter-individuality (age, body mass index, fasting status), and exposure variables (smoking, hormone therapy and medication use). A total of 304 arrays, including 18 technical replicates, were analyzed. We filtered out samples which had less than 40% probes with a signal to noise ratio (S/N) greater than or equal to 3. When a technical replicate was conducted, the array with the least number of probes with S/N greater than or equal to 3 was excluded. After samples filtration, a total of 286 arrays were analyzed. The following samples were filtered out; they were not used in the normalization processing, and none of the study conclusions are based on these samples. NWbAB_ 1 NWbAB_ 2 NWbAB_ 3 NWbAB_ 4 NWbAB_ 5 NWbAB_ 7 NWbAB_ 8 NWbAB_ 61 NWbAB_ 63 NWbAB_ 116 NWbAB_ 120 NWbAB_ 121 NWbAB_ 180 NWbAB_ 183 NWbAB_ 214 NWbAB_ 249 NWbAB_ 254 NWbAB_ 299 Sample records (GSMxxxx) are not provided for the filtered-out samples. However, the metadata for the filtered-out samples is included in the Series supplementary file GSE15289_filtered_metadata.txt. The raw data for both the filtered-out samples and non-filtered-out samples (GSM381832-GSM382117) are included in the Series supplementary file GSE15289_raw.txt.

Project description:The Norwegian Women and Cancer study (NOWAC) is a prospective study which started in 1991 and includes 172 000 Norwegian women aged 30-70 years. The study is based on questionnaires with information on variables of importance to breast cancer risk. Later, about 49 500 samples of peripheral blood have been collected (the NOWAC postgenome cohort). Participants in the NOWAC postgenome cohort with a diagnosis of breast cancer have been identified, and breast cancer cases in Northern Norway diagnosed in 2004-2008 were included in this pilot study. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue was retrieved from the pathology labs, tissue cores were collected and RNA extracted. As normal controls, FFPE tissue from benign breast specimens (breast reductions) was included in the study. Microarray analyses of microRNA expression were perfomed by Exiqon using the 7th generation miRCURY LNA microRNA microarray system.od- to be deleted

Project description:Differences in gene expression between a mutant D. vulgaris strain missing the PerR transcriptional regulator gene and the wild-type strain. For each condition (PerR_cDNA_vrs_gDNA, wild-type_cDNA_vrs_gDNA) 2 unique biological samples were hybridized to 4 arrays that each contained duplicate spots. Genomic DNA was used as universal reference. Log2 PerR mutant versus wild-type gene expresson with growth on WP-lactate. SUPPLEMENTARY FILES: * Log2 gene expression ratios of PerR mutant/wild-type (PerR/gDNA/ wildtype/gDNA) and q-values. * Wild type raw data. * PerR mutant raw data.

Project description:Many library preparation methods are available for gene expression quantification. Here, we sequenced and analysed Universal Human Reference RNA (UHRR) prepared using Smart-Seq2, TruSeq (public data) and a protocol using unique molecular identifiers (UMIs) that all include the ERCC spike-in mRNAs to investigate the effects of amplification bias on expression quantification.

Project description:The American Women’s Health Initiative study published in July 2002 caused considerable concern among hormone replacement therapy (HRT) users and prescribers in many countries. This study is an exploratory research comparing the genome wide expression profile in whole blood samples according to HRT use. Within the Norwegian Women and Cancer study, 100 postmenopausal women (50 HRT users and 50 non-HRT users) born between 1943 and 1949 with normal to high body mass index and no other medication use were selected. After total RNA extraction, amplification and labelling, the samples were hybridized together with a common reference (Universal human reference RNA, Stratagen) to Agilent Human 1A oligoarrays (G4110b, Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA) containing 20,173 unique genes. Differentially expressed genes were used to build a classifier using the nearest shrunken centroids method (PAM). Then, we tested the significant changes in single genes by different methods like t-test, Significance Analysis of Microarrays (SAM) and Bayesian ANOVA analysis (BAM). Results did not reveal any distinct gene list which predicted accurately HRT exposure (error rate = 0.45). Classifier performance slightly improved (error rate = 0.29) including only women who were using continuous combined HRT treatment. According to the small amplitude of expression alterations observed after HRT use in whole blood, large sample sizes are needed to identify significant single genes differentially expressed. However, significant enrichments in biologic process of genes with small changes after HRT use were observed (e.g. receptor and transporter activities, immune response, frizzled signalling pathway, actin filament organization, glycogen metabolism).
