Project description:Novel approaches were used to generate the DNA sequence information for the rhesus GeneChip (2005). The purpose of this experiment was to test its reliability and validity of the rhesus macaque GeneChip across different tissues and centers. Keywords: reliability To test the reliability of the rhesus GeneChip across different centers, RNA was isolated from five sources: cerebral cortex, pancreas, thymus, testis, and an immortalized fibroblast cell line. Aliquots of this RNA were sent to each of three centers: Yerkes National Primate Research Center, Oregon National Primate Research Center and the University of Nebraska Medical Center. Each center labeled the samples and hybridized them to two rhesus macaque GeneChips.
Project description:The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project is a collaborative effort that aims to identify correlations between genotype and tissue-specific gene expression levels that will help identify regions of the genome that influence whether and how much a gene is expressed. GTEx is funded through the Common Fund, and managed by the NIH Office of the Director in partnership with the National Human Genome Research Institute, National Institute of Mental Health, the National Cancer Institute, the National Center for Biotechnology Information at the National Library of Medicine, the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, the National Institute on Drug Abuse, and the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Stroke, all part of NIH. This series of 837 samples represents multiple tissues collected from 102 GTEX donors and 1 control cell line. In total, 30 tissue sites are represented including Adipose, Artery, Heart, Lung, Whole Blood, Muscle, Skin, and 11 brain subregions. RNA-seq expression data, robust clinical data, pathological annotations, and genotypes are also available for these samples from dbGaP (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/gap/cgi-bin/study.cgi?study_id=phs000424.v2.p1) and the GTEx portal (www.broadinstitute.org/gtex). While GTEx is no longer generating Affymetrix expression data, donor enrollment continues and is expected to reach 1,000 by the end of 2015. Updates to the GTEx data in dbGaP and the GTEx Portal will be made periodically. contributor: GTEx Laboratory, Data Analysis, and Coordinating Center (LDACC) contributor: The Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard (LDACC PIs: Kristin Ardlie and Gaddy Getz)

Project description:This study is part of the Mutant Mouse Regional Resource Center Research. The series subsets represent the strain and age group for easy comparisons. Each subseries has data for three different tissues (brain, liver and kidney) and 2 sexes. Keywords: other
Project description:A comparison of gene expression between control versus IPF human lung MPC using human Affy 1.0st chips. This work was funded by grants to S.M. Majka from the NIH R01HL091105 and NIH R01HL11659701. Additional funding was also provided by PPG-5P01HL108800-04 (PI:J. Loyd). Experiments were performed using the University of Colorado Cancer Center Microarray core (NCI P30 CA 46934-14). The project was supported in part by the National Center for Research Resources, Grant UL1 RR024975-01, and is now at the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, Grant 2 UL1 TR000445-06.
