Technical differences between sequencing and microarray platforms impact transcriptomic subtyping of colorectal cancer

Gene expression profiling has increasing relevance in the molecular screening of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). We investigated potential platform-specific effects on transcriptomic subtyping according to established frameworks by comparisons of expression profiles from RNA sequencing and ex...

Description
Summary:Gene expression profiling has increasing relevance in the molecular screening of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). We investigated potential platform-specific effects on transcriptomic subtyping according to established frameworks by comparisons of expression profiles from RNA sequencing and exon-resolution microarrays in 126 primary microsatellite stable CRCs. There was a strong platform correspondence in global gene expression levels, albeit with systematic technical bias likely attributed to few sequencing reads covering short (
