Overview Analysis of the glioblastoma multiforme dataset introduced in The Cancer Genome Atlas Research Network, Nature 2008 455:1061-1068. The following microarray platforms are analyzed: gene (Affymetrix U133A), exon (Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0) and miRNA expression; SNP (Affymetrix); Array CGH (Agilent 244A); DNA methylation. In expression microarrays, solid tumors are compared to brain tissue from healthy controls. Array CGH compares solid tumors with reference blood. SNP analysis uses blood samples from patients.
