Genes and Diseases: Insights from Transcriptomics Studies.

ABSTRACT: Results of expression studies can be useful to clarify the genotype-phenotype relationship. However, according to data from recent literature, there is a large group of genes that are revealed as differentially expressed (DE) in many studies, regardless of the biological context. Additional analyses could shed more light on the relationships between genes, their differential expression, and diseases. We generated a set of 9972 disease genes from five gene-phenotype databases (OMIM, ORPHANET, DDG2P, DisGeNet and MalaCards) and a report of the International Union of Immunological Societies. To study transcriptomics of disease and non-disease genes in healthy tissues, we obtained data from the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) website. We analyzed the dependency between expression in healthy tissues
