While the utilization of microarrays for gene expression studies has been widely published, Microarray Methods for Drug Discovery describes the use of thistechnology for a multitude of other vital applications. Covering the field ofdrug discovery through its various aspects, including high throughput screening, target identification, drug metabolism and toxicity screening as well as clinical sample handling, this volume also addresses new emerging fields like miRNA profiling, ribonomic and glycomic profiling. All chapters, contributed byexperts in the field, follow the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, which is comprised of brief introductions, lists of required materials and reagents, readily reproducible, step-by-step lab protocols, along with detailed tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls, making this book an easy read for investigators at all levels of expertise. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Microarray Methods for Drug Discovery provides an idealdesk reference for scientists who wish to use microarray technology in order to better understand a variety of biological interactions in their respective fields. Provides a single volume reference for all types of microarrays Supplies new information on microarrays for cytogenetics and drug metabolism Covers a wide range of microarray platforms used in genomics, epigenomics, genotyping, proteomics, and small molecule screening Serves as a comprehensive step-by step guide to design, implement, and analyze data from various array platforms A good reference for designing microarray experiments to decipher transcriptome regulation and DNA modifications INDICE: Multicenter Clinical Sample Collection for Microarray Analysis.- Selective Isolation of Total RNA from Mouse Melanoma Subsets Using FluorescenceActivated Cell Sorting.- Microarray Analysis of Embryonic Stem Cells and Differentiated Embryoid Bodies.- Determination of Alternate Splicing Events Using the Affymetrix Exon 1.0 ST Arrays.- Profiling microRNA Expression with the Illumina BeadChip Platform.- TaqMan® Array Cards in Pharmaceutical Research.- DMET™ Microarray Technology for Pharmacogenomics-Based Personalized Medicine.- The Use of Microarray Technology for Cytogenetics.- PCR/LDR/Universal Array Platforms for the Diagnosis of Infectious Disease.- RIP-CHIP in Drug Development.-ChIPing Away At Global Transcriptional Regulation.- HELP (HpaII Tiny FragmentEnrichment by Ligation-Mediated PCR) Assay for DNA Methylation Profiling of Primary Normal and Malignant B Lymphocytes.- High-Throughput Screening of Metalloproteases Using Small Molecule Microarrays.- Metabolic Enzyme Microarray Coupled with Miniaturized Cell-Culture Array Technology for High-Throughput Toxicity Screening.- Use of Tissue Microarray to Facilitate Oncology Research.- Small Molecule Selectivity and Specificity Profiling Using Functional Protein Microarrays.- Production and Application of Glycan Microarrays.
