Statistical Analysis Could Improve Understanding and Treatment of Different Brain Tumors
1 Jan 2018Brain tumors are extremely heterogeneous, and there remains an unmet clinical need for early diagnosis. This application note details a study in which scientists use Qlucore Omics Explorer to analyze large quantities of data on gene expression in gliomas, with the goal of developing an improved classification system.

ProteomicsProteomics is the systemic bioinformatics study of proteins and amino acids, including their structure, size, function and identification. Tools used in proteomics include chromatography, blotting and gels, protein arrays, mass spectrometry and ELISA and associated analysis software. Analyzers and proteomic systems should be sensitive, high resolution, fast and may be automated for high-throughput.Software PlatformsSoftware platforms are useful for various stages of laboratory experiments from data collection to data storage and processing. For instance lab software is available for system control, data management, data analysis and qualification / validation.Development SoftwareComputational techniques used in both the chemistry and biology aspects of drug development, for data acquisition, data analysis, processing and storage. Software is used for analysis of ADME results, toxicology, clinical trials and regulatory processes. ProteomicsProteomics refers to the analysis of proteins through a variety of different experiments in order to understand structure and functionality. Typical techniques include protein purification and mass spectrometry. TumorsTumor research focuses on understanding abnormal cell growth that leads to cancer. Identifying biomarkers, studying tumor microenvironments, and developing targeted therapies are critical for advancing cancer treatment. Early detection and personalized treatment options are key to improving outcomes for patients.
