Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE38932: Expression data of gastric cancer by conventional microarray and by suppressive subtractive hybridization coupled to microarray GSE38939: Expression data of colon cancer by conventional microarray and by suppressive subtractive hybridization coupled to microarray Refer to individual Series
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of gastric tumors compared to paired adjacent non-tumoral gastric tissue by two strategies. The first strategy is a conventional microarray assay, while the second strategy involves a previous Suppression Subtractive Hybridization (SSH) followed by a conventional microarray assay. We applied subtractive hybridization followed by microarray analysis to identify tumor-specific low-abundance transcripts. The goal was to determine differences in gene expression profile in tumor samples by both strategies.

We applied subtractive hybridization followed by microarray analysis to identify tumor-specific low-abundance transcripts. The goal was to determine differences in gene expression profile in tumor samples by both strategies. Two-condition experiment: tumoral vs. adjacent non-tumoral tissues. Biological replicates: 12 tumoral replicates, 12 non-tumoral replicates. The same replicates were used for both strategies (conventional, SSH). Human Universal Reference RNA (Clontech) was used as the reference.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of colonic tumors compared to paired adjacent non-tumoral colonic tissue by two strategies. The first strategy is a conventional microarray assay, while the second strategy involves a previous Suppression Subtractive Hybridization (SSH) followed by a conventional microarray assay. We applied subtractive hybridization followed by microarray analysis to identify tumor-specific low-abundance transcripts. The goal was to determine differences in gene expression profile in tumor samples by both strategies.

Project description:To understand molecular mechanisms of the joint effects of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), both widely used ordnance compounds, we constructed a microarray consisting of 4,032 cDNA isolated from the earthworm Eisenia fetida using the suppressive subtractive hybridization technique. Worms were exposed to TNT-, RDX-, or TNT+RDX-spiked soil for 28 days (TNT 50 mg/kg, RDX 30 mg/kg). Keywords: Combined toxicity of TNT and RDX to earthworm (Eisenia fetida)
Project description:To understand molecular mechanisms of the chronic, sublethal toxicity of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), a widely used ordnance compound of public concerns, we constructed a microarray consisting of 4,032 cDNA isolated from the earthworm Eisenia fetida using the suppressive subtractive hybridization technique. Worms were exposed to a gradient of TNT-spiked soil for 28 days. Based on the reproduction response to TNT, four treatments, i.e., control, 7, 35 and 139 ppm, were selected for gene expression studies. Keywords: Sublethal toxicity of TNT (dose-response) to earthworm (Eisenia fetida)
