Project description:Pilocytic astrocytomas (PAs), WHO Grade I, are one of the most frequently occurring childhood brain tumors. We have used microarray comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) at 1Mb resolution to study copy number changes in a series of PAs (n=44). Keywords: Comparative Genomic Hybridization, aCGH
Project description:Pilocytic astrocytomas (PAs), WHO Grade I, are one of the most frequently occurring childhood brain tumors. We have used microarray comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) at 1Mb resolution to study copy number changes in a series of PAs (n=44). Single hybridization per case. 44 pilocytic astrocytomas WHO grade I were analyzed. Target (tumor) labelled with Cy5 and reference with Cy3. Mixture of 20 normal male or female genomic DNA was used in sex-mismatched hybridization.
Project description:We have used microarray comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) at 1Mb resolution to study copy number changes in a series of WHO Grade II Astrocytomas (n=21). We have used Illumina arrays to study genome-wide expression patterns in a series of WHO Grade II Astrocytomas (n=10). Keywords: Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH), Expression microarray
Project description:Pilocytic astrocytomas (PAs), WHO Grade I, are one of the most frequently occurring childhood brain tumors. We have used microarray comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) to study copy number changes on chromosome 7 in a series of PAs (n=44). Keywords: Comparative Genomic Hybridization Single hybridization per case. 44 pilocytic astrocytomas WHO grade I were analyzed. Target (tumor) labelled with Cy5 and reference with Cy3. Mixture of 20 normal male or female genomic DNA was used in sex-mismatched hybridization.

We have used Illumina arrays to study genome-wide expression patterns in a series of WHO Grade II Astrocytomas (n=10). Keywords: Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH), Expression microarray [aCGH]: Single hybridization per case. 21 astrocytomas WHO grade II were analyzed. Target (tumor) labelled with Cy5 and reference with Cy3. Mixture of 20 normal male or female genomic DNA was used in sex-mismatched hybridization. [mRNA]: Single hybridization per case. 10 astrocytomas WHO grade II were analyzed (5 adult, 5 pediatric)
Project description:An oligo array based high-resolution analysis of copy number alterations in 171 primary breast tumors of relatively small size and low NPI, and 49 breast cancer cell-lines. Objectives of the study were to study the molecular taxonomy and the genomic aberration patterns in a breast cancer cohort representative of breast cancer demographics. Keywords: array comparative genomic hybridisation
Project description:Set of arrays organized by shared biological context, such as organism, tumors types, processes, etc. Characterization of DNA copy number changes in 54 glial brain tumors using a cDNA microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization method. Tumors: 54 fresh-frozen glioma specimens subjected to standard WHO classification. Specimens included astrocytic [3 juvenile pilocytic astrocytomas, 1 low-grade astrocytic glioma, 3 anaplastic astrocytomas, 31 glioblastomas (of these 3 secondary glioblastomas and 2 gliosarcomas)], oligodendroglial [5 oligodendrogliomas, 3 anaplastic oligodendrogliomas], and 7 anaplastic oligoastrocytomas tumors. One tumor had been classified as glioneuronal neoplasm. Human male and female genomic reference DNA was purchased from Promega (Promega, Madison, WI). The results provide insights into molecular genetic changes associated with gliomagenesis. Keywords: other
