The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project

John T. Lonsdale, +129 more
- 29 May 2013 - 
TL;DR: The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project is described, which will establish a resource database and associated tissue bank for the scientific community to study the relationship between genetic variation and gene expression in human tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictive Value of Intratumoral Microvascular Density in Patients with Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Receiving Chemotherapy Plus Bevacizumab

TL;DR: The MVD of undifferentiated vessels is a favorable predictor for patients with NSCLC treated with a chemotherapy regimen plus bevacizumab, with a higher MVD value correlating with better treatment response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined Gene Expression Profiling and RNAi Screening in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma Identify PLK1 and Other Therapeutic Kinase Targets

TL;DR: Findings highlight Polo-like kinase 1 as a rational therapeutic target for ccRCC by examining the effects of a small-molecule inhibitor of PLK1 in cell lines and RNAi screening to identify kinases and phosphatases that when inhibited could prevent cell proliferation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Veterinary and Human Biobanking Practices: Enhancing Molecular Sample Integrity

TL;DR: A time course experiment of murine kidney tissues is established that predicts conventional measures of RNA integrity by RIN analysis and provides reliable and accurate measures of biospecimen integrity and fitness, in particular for time points less than 3 hours post–tissue resection.
