Transcription profiling of 287 lymphoblastoid cell lines

ABSTRACT: We used microarrays to identify the variation of basal gene expression level among 287 lymphoblastoid cell lines. Radiation therapy is used to treat half of all cancer patients. Response to radiation therapy varies widely among patients. Therefore, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify biomarkers to help predict radiation response using 277 ethnically defined human lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs). Basal gene expression levels and 1.3 million genome-wide SNP markers from both Affymetrix and Illumina platforms were assayed for all 277 human LCLs. MTS (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium) assays for radiation cytotoxicity were also performed to obtain area under the curve (AUC) as a radiation response phenotyp
