Project description:We performed global microRNA expression profiling of a cohort of primary melanoma patient samples linked to a well-annotated clinical database. The goal of this study was to identify microRNA that are associated to or correlated with various clinical parameters and patient outcomes. Candidate microRNA were identified for building prognostic models and functional testing.

Project description:MicroRNA profiling was performed on RNA samples matched to those included in the NIH Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Database (Series GSE32923). Twenty undifferentiated human embryonic stem cell lines and 4 human tissues were analyzed. Expanded descriptions of methods used are available at: http://stemcelldb.nih.gov.
Project description:Interventions: Gold Standard:colonoscopy and pathology;Index test:Stool multi-target DNA and microRNA-135b
Primary outcome(s): Stool multi-target DNA and microRNA-135b
Study Design: Diagnostic test for accuracy
Project description:We performed global microRNA expression profiling of a cohort of primary melanoma patient samples linked to a well-annotated clinical database. The goal of this study was to identify microRNA that are associated to or correlated with various clinical parameters and patient outcomes. Candidate microRNA were identified for building prognostic models and functional testing. 119 primary melanoma samples were analyzed in two color arrays. The reference sample used was an equal combination of all samples analyzed. By this design, ratio data of test sample/reference is mean-centered data.
Project description:This study investigates the predictive and prognostic values of inflammatory markers and microRNA in stage IV colorectal cancer. The expression of inflammatory markers and microRNA in plasma will be correlated with tumor location, with dietary patterns and with survival during treatment.

The goal of this study was to identify microRNA that are associated to or correlated with various clinical parameters and patient outcomes. Candidate microRNA were identified for building prognostic models and functional testing. 92 primary melanoma (well-annotated with long clinical follow-up) and 9 congenital nevi samples were analyzed to Exiqon miRCURY two color arrays. The reference sample used was an equal combination of all samples analyzed. By this design, ratio data of test sample/reference is mean-centered data.
