Abstract: Normalization removes or minimizes the biases of systematic variation that exists in experimental data sets. This study presents a systematic variation normalization (SVN) procedure for removing systematic variation in two channel microarray gene expression data. Based on an analysis of how systematic variation contributes to variability in microarray data sets, our normalization procedure includes background subtraction determined from the distribution of pixel intensity values from each data acquisition channel and log conversion, linear or non-linear regression, restoration or transformation, and multiarray normalization. In the case when a non-linear regression is required, an empirical polynomial approximation approach is used. Either the high terminated points or their averaged values in the distributions of the pixel intensity values observed in control channels may be used for rescaling multiarray datasets. These pre-processing steps remove systematic variation in the data attributable to variability in microarray slides, assay-batches, the array process, or experimenters. Biologically meaningful comparisons of gene expression patterns between control and test channels or among multiple arrays are therefore unbiased using normalized but not unnormalized datasets.

TL;DR: Age affects both the basal pattern of gene expression in joint tissues and the response to surgically induced OA, as well as an age-related decrease in matrix gene expression and an increase in immune and defense response gene expression.

TL;DR: It is shown that the onset and pattern of methylation changes during colorectal neoplastic progression are locus dependent and cumulative changes are closely correlated with a gain of DNMT3B expression, suggesting a causal relationship.

Immune Modulation During Latent Herpesvirus Infection
TL;DR: This review explores data in human and animal systems that reveal the ability of latent herpesviruses to modulate the immune response to self and environmental antigens and forces us to reconsider what constitutes a ‘normal’ immune system in a healthy individual.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that gene expression data from peripheral blood cells can provide valuable information about exposure levels, well before liver damage is detected by classical parameters, supports the potential use of genomic markers in the blood as surrogates for clinical markers of potential acute liver damage.

Robust Locally Weighted Regression and Smoothing Scatterplots
TL;DR: Robust locally weighted regression as discussed by the authors is a method for smoothing a scatterplot, in which the fitted value at z k is the value of a polynomial fit to the data using weighted least squares, where the weight for (x i, y i ) is large if x i is close to x k and small if it is not.

A comparison of normalization methods for high density oligonucleotide array data based on variance and bias
TL;DR: Three methods of performing normalization at the probe intensity level are presented: a one number scaling based algorithm and a method that uses a non-linear normalizing relation by comparing the variability and bias of an expression measure and the simplest and quickest complete data method is found to perform favorably.
