Multiplex Analysis Using cDNA Transcriptomic Profiling
DNA microarrays contain microscopic DNA spots attached to a solid surface. Each spot contains picomolar levels of a specific DNA probe sequence and hybridization to the corresponding gene products can be detected and quantitated through the use of fluores

Preface Due to continuous technical developments and new insights into the high complexity of many diseases, there is an increasing need for multiplex biomarker readouts for improved clinical management and to support the development of new drugs by pharmaceutical companies. The initial rollout of these techniques has led to promising results by helping to read patients as deeply as possible and provide clinicians with information relevant for a personalized medicine approach. This book describes the basic technology platforms being applied in the fields of genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, and imaging, which are currently the methods of choice in multiplex biomarker research. It also describes the chief medical areas in which the greatest progress has been made and highlights areas where further resources are required. More than 1000 biomarker candidates for various diseases have b
