Transcriptome profiling identifies HMGA2 as a novel gene in melanoma progression

The identification of novel tumor-specific markers may improve understanding of melanoma progression and prognostic accuracy. Whole genome expression profiling of 46 primary melanomas, 12 metastases, and 16 normal skin samples using Affymetrix U133 PLUS 2.0 array generated gene lists including both known and new melanoma genes. The molecular genetic alterations contributing to the pathogenesis of melanoma are incompletely defined and few independent prognostic features have been identified beyon...

Provenance — who produced it, who reused it

Linked to 54 papers in the literature. Roles are inferred factual signals (who deposited the data vs who reused it), with counts — never a judgement about any author.

Standardized, field-standard QC computed by touching the data — every metric states how it was obtained

measured = computed from the data · extrapolated/reported = derived or from the repository · dq-1.0 · provisional — verify independently
