Lung cancer is a highly aggressive neoplasm with 85% mortality. To identify new tumor-associated genes, we compared the expression profile of a primary metastasizing adenocarcinoma with normal airway epithelial cells. Two cDNA libraries of up-and downregulated genes were generated, comprising 253 an

Abstract
In the era of systems biology, computational and high‐throughput experimental biological approaches are increasingly being combined to provide global snapshots of entire genomes and proteomes under tissue‐ and disease‐specific conditions. The aim is to identify proteins changing in concentration and/or post‐translational state and/or location, and develop a better molecular level understanding of the operation of biological systems. Here we describe an approach for comparative proteomics that builds upon the combination of high‐performance nano‐scale separations with the high‐mass measurement accuracy, mass‐resolving power and sensitivity of Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry to provide broad dynamic range, comprehensive and quantitative proteome measurements.

The use of serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) to determine gene expression profiles is increasing because the technique can provide absolute transcript numbers in a digital format and identify new genes. We developed a miniSAGE technique, which uses only 1 microg total RNA and reduces the amo
Imaging mass spectrometry has emerged as a powerful technique based on time-of-flight secondary-ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) [1] and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ ionization (MALDI). [2,3] However, until now, the massspectrometric analysis of biological tissues has been limited to techniques
