lüll Gene expression profiling by DNA microarray technology Iida K; Nishimura ICrit Rev Oral Biol Med 2002[]; 13 (1): 35-50Methods in molecular and genetic biology have provided important clues to elucidate the complex mechanisms of oral and craniofacial development and pathogenesis of diseases. It has become increasingly clear that a biological phenotype is a result of multiple factors involving a large number of regulatory genes, while a single nucleotide mutation can cause various degrees of oral and craniofacial abnormalities. These oral and craniofacial problems often present a challenge to the molecular screening process. Recent advances in microarray-based technologies allow for large-scale gene expression analysis in a single experiment, which have been applied to genome-wide assays, mutational analysis, drug discovery, developmental biology, and molecular analysis of various diseases. This review introduces the basic principle and some modifications of techniques and materials used in microarray technology, as well as currently available microarray data analysis strategies. Microarray technology can be applied to the soon-to-be-available human genome database and will be a powerful research tool for those inquiring into specific problems associated with oral and craniofacial biology.|Animals[MESH]|DNA Probes/chemical synthesis[MESH]|Fluorescent Dyes[MESH]|Gene Expression Profiling/*methods[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Image Processing, Computer-Assisted[MESH]|Oligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis/*methods[MESH]|Oral Medicine/methods[MESH]|Reproducibility of Results[MESH]|Tissue Engineering[MESH] |
