Sample size for detecting differentially expressed genes in microarray experiments
Background: Microarray experiments are often performed with a small number of biological replicates, resulting in low statistical power for detecting differentially expressed genes and concomitant high false positive rates. While increasing sample size can increase statistical power and decrease error rates, with too many samples, valuable resources are not used efficiently. The issue of how ma...
متن کاملDetecting differentially expressed genes in longitudinal microarray experiments
In this work we propose a statistical approach for the detection of differentially expressed genes. Specifically, we envisage a longitudinal study design where multiple biological replicates are available and each individual is observed at more than one time point. We present a semi-parametric random effects model based on smoothing splines and introduce a visual-distance metric for detecting t...
متن کاملIdentifying differentially expressed genes in dye-swapped microarray experiments of small sample size
When using microarray analysis to determine gene dependence, one of the goals is to identify differentially expressed genes. However, the inherent variationsmake analysis challenging.We propose a statistical method (SRA, swapped and regression analysis) especially for dye-swapped design and small sample size. Under general assumptions about the structure of the channels, scanner, and target eff...
متن کاملSelecting differentially expressed genes from microarray experiments.
High throughput technologies, such as gene expression arrays and protein mass spectrometry, allow one to simultaneously evaluate thousands of potential biomarkers that could distinguish different tissue types. Of particular interest here is distinguishing between cancerous and normal organ tissues. We consider statistical methods to rank genes (or proteins) in regards to differential expression...
متن کاملRobust semiparametric mixing for detecting differentially expressed genes in microarray experiments
An important goal of microarray studies is the detection of genes that show significant changes in observed expressions when two or more classes of biological samples such as treatment and control are compared. Using the c-fold rule, a gene is declared to be differentially expressed if its average expression level varies by more than a constant factor c between treatment and control (typically ...
