Factors associated with heterogeneity in microarray gene expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from large pedigrees
BACKGROUND Genome-wide microarray expression is a rich source of functional genomic data. We examined evidence for differences in expression from peripheral blood mononuclear cells between individuals, examined some of factors that may be responsible and provide recommendations for analysis. METHODS A total of 643 individuals from 17 large Mexican American pedigrees had microarray gene expres...
متن کاملAnalytic approaches to differential gene expression in AIDS versus control brains.
We previously showed that specific strains of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infect the brain and contribute to Neuropathology, Cognitive Distress, and Neuropsychiatric Disease. To study further brain disease that results from HIV-1 infection, we commenced analysis of changes in gene expression in brain. We analyzed RNA purified from Frontal Cortex of 5 HIV-1 infected and 4 HIV-1 negative...

e aim of this thesis is develop methods to extract information from high-dimensionality data and to apply in looking at gene-gene and gene-protein interactions in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). e in silico methods developed can be used with data from other systems. e thesis gives an overview of the field for network inference and deconvolution methods, as well as a brief background on the bio...
متن کاملDisease Gene Mapping in General Pedigrees
LI, LI. Disease Gene Mapping in General Pedigrees (under the direction of Dr. Bruce S. Weir and Dr. Sharon R. Browning) Disease gene mapping is one of the main focuses of genetic epidemiology and statistical genetics. This dissertation explores some methods and algorithms in this area, especially in pedigrees. The first chapter gives an introduction to human genetics and disease gene mapping. E...
متن کاملGene coancestry in pedigrees and populations
Related individuals share common ancestors, and hence may carry DNA that is identical by descent (ibd) from these ancestors. With high probability, ibd DNA is of the same allelic type, leading to trait similarities among relatives. Classically, data on known relatives are used to map the genes underlying genetically mediated traits, and the prior probabilities of ibd are then given by the pedig...
