Brain Cell Type Specific Gene Expression and Co-expression Network Architectures

TL;DR: A set of novel brain cell consensus signatures and robust networks from the integration of multiple datasets are identified and therefore transcend limitations related to technical issues characteristic of each individual study.

Reference-free deconvolution of DNA methylation data and mediation by cell composition effects

TL;DR: This work proposes a simple method for reference-free deconvolution that provides both proportions of putative cell types defined by their underlying methylomes, the number of these constituent cell types, as well as a method for evaluating the extent to which the underlyingmethylomes reflect specific types of cells.

Linear Models and Empirical Bayes Methods for Assessing Differential Expression in Microarray Experiments

TL;DR: The hierarchical model of Lonnstedt and Speed (2002) is developed into a practical approach for general microarray experiments with arbitrary numbers of treatments and RNA samples and the moderated t-statistic is shown to follow a t-distribution with augmented degrees of freedom.
