Schizophrenia is a common psychiatric disorder involving approximately 1% of the population worldwide. Family, twin, and adoption studies suggest genetic factors contribute to this illness (Lang et al ...

Investigators have two important questions to consider when evaluating microarray expression data. First, they must ask whether the results are valid—in other words, accurate—for the particular ...

Tecan has announced the launch of HS 400 Pro™ and HS 4800 Pro™ automated microarray stations. These arrays are based on the HS series of hybridization stations and have been designed to maximize the ...

Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was developed to identify pathogenic DNA copy-number changes (e.g., duplications, deletions) on a genome-wide scale, and to map these changes to genomic ...

The "capture" can be realized through the hybridization of fragmented DNA with baits complementary to regions of interest, either on a microarray chip or free in solution. In-solution hybridization ...

Metronomic oral cyclophosphamide (CPM) and prednisolone in elderly patients (pts) with inoperable or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma (STS). No significant financial relationships to disclose. This is ...

The expression pattern of a single gene or multiple genes can be investigated using a technique RNA microarray. In this technique, RNA molecules are ‘spotted’ onto a solid surface. These act as probes ...
