Abstract

Microarrays allow for the analysis of transcription in a large number of genes simultaneously. They have played an important role in the identification of cancer cell signaling pathways. The ease of use and reliability of microarrays has been a result of standardization of assay protocols and consolidation of data analysis techniques. Online public repositories of gene expression profile data have been created, allowing for researchers to test their hypothesis regarding the link between gene signaling and disease. Microarrays have many different applications in the study of cancer. It allows for disease stratification of tumors into different molecular subgroups. They can also provide additional information on disease mechanism, cancer prognosis, and cancer metastasis. Multiple studies have used microarrays on cell lines to perform preclinical screening to predict anticancer drug responses. In addition, they can be used in real-life patient’s tissues to provide personalized prediction of drug response.
