  • Patent number: 7108969
    Abstract: Methods of monitoring the expression of genes in malignant oral cells is disclosed. Gene expression profiles are used to identify markers associated with malignant oral cells and to diagnose oral cancer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 10, 2001
    Date of Patent: September 19, 2006
    Assignees: Affymetrix, Inc., President & Fellows of Harvard College
    Inventors: Janet A. Warrington, David T. W. Wong, Charles Randolph Todd, Mamatha Mahadevappa
  • Publication number: 20050164272
    Abstract: The present invention compares expression profiles from matched samples to identify differential gene expression. Samples are matched according to physiological, pharmacological and/or disease state. Comparison of matched samples eliminates gene expression differences that are the result of changes in variables that are not of interest. The gene expression differences that remain can be attributed with a high degree of confidence to the unmatched variation. The gene expression differences thus identified can be used for example to diagnose disease, identify physiological state, design drugs, and monitor therapies.

  • Publication number: 20050053998
    Abstract: This invention provides methods for discovering maintenance genes and for using maintenance genes. In one embodiment, the expression of at least three maintenance genes are measured and used as reference (or control) for comparing the expression of target genes in two or more biological samples.

  • Publication number: 20040029151
    Abstract: Many genes are affected in prostate cancers which have not been previously identified. This includes genes that have been up-regulated or down-regulated. Monitoring the expression levels of these genes is useful to identify the existence of prostate cancer. Also, monitoring the expression levels of these genes is useful to predict the effectiveness of treatment, outcome, use of therapeutics, and screening drugs useful for the treatment of prostate cancer.
