Project description:Copy number profiling of 36 ovarian tumors on Affymetrix 100K SNP arrays Thirty-six ovarian tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the Affymetrix 100K Mapping Array. Copy number profiling of 36 ovarian tumors on Affymetrix 500K SNP arrays Sixteen ovary tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the high-resolution Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array.
Project description:sPNETs are highly malignant embryonal brain tumours of poor prognosis. The underlying biology is poorly understood. To address this we therefore performed high resolution genetic analysis. 36 CNS PNETs and 8 PBs were analysed using the Affymetrix 100K and 500K Mapping Set to identify copy number imbalance at both the chromosome and gene level. Keywords: Affymetrix 100K SNP array, Affymetrix 500K SNP arrays

Copy number profiling of 36 ovarian tumors on Affymetrix 500K SNP arrays Sixteen ovary tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the high-resolution Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array. Affymetrix 100K Mapping Array intensity signal CEL files were processed by dChip 2005 (Build date Nov 30, 2005) using the PM/MM difference model and invariant set normalization. Each probe set was mapped to the genome, NCBI assembly version 36, using annotation provided by the Affymetrix web site. The log2 ratios were centered to a median of zero and segmented using the GLAD package for the R statistical environment. Copy number was calculated as power(2,log2ratio + 1). Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array intensity signal CEL files were processed by dChip 2005 (Build date Nov 30, 2005) using the PM/MM difference model and invariant set normalization. Forty-eight normal samples were downloaded from the Affymetrix website (http://www.affymetrix.com/support/technical/byproduct.affx?product=500k) and analyzed at the same time. One CEL file for each set (Sty and Nsp) with the median signal intensity across the set was selected as the reference array. The dChip-normalized signal intensities were converted to log2 ratios and segmented as follows. For each autosomal probe set, the log2 tumor/normal ratio of each tumor sample was calculated using the average intensity for each probe set in the normal set. For Chromosome X, the average of the 20 normal female samples was used. Each probe set was mapped to the genome, NCBI assembly version 36, using annotation provided by the Affymetrix web site. The log2 ratios were centered to a median of zero and segmented using the GLAD package for the R statistical environment. Copy number was calculated as power(2,log2ratio + 1).

Project description:Genome-wide profiling of Copy Number Alterations (CNA) and Loss of Heterozygosity (LOH), gene expression and resequencing of pediatric AML. This study characterizes the CNA and LOH in a representative cross-section through subtypes of pediatric AML. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from cryopreserved diagnostic bone marrow or peripheral blood samples. 111 pediatric AML samples were studied using either Affymetrix 100K + 500K 5.0 SNP arrays, 65 of the samples had paired germ line material. The supplemental file 'GSE15732_AML_175_SNP_Xba_signal.txt' contains the raw signals generated by dChip without normalization. The CNA and LOH data can be found in the Supplemental Information of the associated manuscript.

Project description:Gastric cancer and esophageal cancer are the 2nd and 6th leading causes of cancer death worldwide. We analyzed DNA copy numbers for 73 ESCC (43 SNP5.0 and 30 500K SNP) with the Affymetrix SNP arrays . Our analyses implicated potential driver mutations involving the following genes: mutations in TP53, BRCA2, NOTCH2, CTNNB1, and LEPREL2; amplification of CCND1, FGF3/4/19, and MYC; and deletion of CDKN2A/B.
