Project description:Copy number profiling of 36 ovarian tumors on Affymetrix 100K SNP arrays Thirty-six ovarian tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the Affymetrix 100K Mapping Array. Copy number profiling of 36 ovarian tumors on Affymetrix 500K SNP arrays Sixteen ovary tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the high-resolution Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array. Affymetrix 100K Mapping Array intensity signal CEL files were processed by dChip 2005 (Build date Nov 30, 2005) using the PM/MM difference model and invariant set normalization. Each probe set was mapped to the genome, NCBI assembly version 36, using annotation provided by the Affymetrix web site. The log2 ratios were centered to a median of zero and segmented using the GLAD package for the R statistical environment. Copy number was calculated as power(2,log2ratio + 1). Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array intensity signal CEL files were processed by dChip 2005 (Build date Nov 30, 2005) using the PM/MM difference model and invariant set normalization. Forty-eight normal samples were downloaded from the Affymetrix website (http://www.affymetrix.com/support/technical/byproduct.affx?product=500k) and analyzed at the same time. One CEL file for each set (Sty and Nsp) with the median signal intensity across the set was selected as the reference array. The dChip-normalized signal intensities were converted to log2 ratios and segmented as follows. For each autosomal probe set, the log2 tumor/normal ratio of each tumor sample was calculated using the average intensity for each probe set in the normal set. For Chromosome X, the average of the 20 normal female samples was used. Each probe set was mapped to the genome, NCBI assembly version 36, using annotation provided by the Affymetrix web site. The log2 ratios were centered to a median of zero and segmented using the GLAD package for the R statistical environment. Copy number was calculated as power(2,log2ratio + 1).
Project description:Fifty-seven ovary tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the high-resolution Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array. Keywords: Mapping Array
Project description:sPNETs are highly malignant embryonal brain tumours of poor prognosis. The underlying biology is poorly understood. To address this we therefore performed high resolution genetic analysis. 36 CNS PNETs and 8 PBs were analysed using the Affymetrix 100K and 500K Mapping Set to identify copy number imbalance at both the chromosome and gene level. Keywords: Affymetrix 100K SNP array, Affymetrix 500K SNP arrays 36 CNS PNETs and 8 PBs with constitutional controls
Project description:Affymetrix 500K array was used to determine gross genomic aberrations in a panel of Primary Effusion Lymphoma (PEL) cell lines, specifically focusing on chromosome 10, which includes the Phosphatase and Tensin Homolog (PTEN) locus.
