Project name: Homo sapiens

Description: We analyzed the whole-genome mRNA expression profiling of cultured lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) from patients (n=2), carriers (n=2), and unrelated normal controls (n=3), all performed in duplicates using Affymetrix GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 ST arrays, to identify genes and pathways that are significantly dysregulated in affected individuals. Moreover, we have performed global transcriptional profiling in whole blood from patients (n=2) and healthy controls (n=13) using Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 arrays. Global transcriptional profiling of affected individuals and controls revealed significant alterations of genes and pathways in a pattern consistent with previous microarray studies of autism spectrum disorder patients.Overall design: Whole-genome mRNA expression profiles of samples from whole blood from patients with global developmental delay and autistic features (n=2) and healthy controls (n=13) using Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 arrays.
