Post hoc pattern matching: assigning significance to statistically defined expression patterns in single channel microarray dataRandall Hulshizer
Department of Molecular and Biomedical Pharmacology, University of Kentucky College of Medicine, Lexington, Kentucky, USA
BMC Bioinformatics 8:240. 2007..Finally, different patterns may have different probabilities of occurring by chance, importantly influencing researchers' conclusions about a pattern and its constituent genes...
Statistical implications of pooling RNA samples for microarray experimentsXuejun Peng
Department of Statistics, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506, USA
BMC Bioinformatics 4:26. 2003..However, the statistical, technical and financial implications of pooling have not been explicitly investigated...

Ageing Res Rev 4:481-512. 2005..We also review how work by ourselves and others with this powerful technology is leading to new insights into the complex processes of brain aging and AD, and to novel, more comprehensive models of aging-related brain change...
Aging-related gene expression in hippocampus proper compared with dentate gyrus is selectively associated with metabolic syndrome variables in rhesus monkeysEric M Blalock
Department of Molecular and Biomedical Pharmacology, University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky 40536, USA
J Neurosci 30:6058-71. 2010..In turn, these MSI-associated neuroenergetic changes may promote inflammation, neuronal vulnerability, and risk of cognitive impairment/AD...
Calcineurin enhances L-type Ca(2+) channel activity in hippocampal neurons: increased effect with age in cultureC M Norris
Department of Molecular and Biomedical Pharmacology, College of Medicine, MS 310 UKMC, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40536 0298, USA
Neuroscience 110:213-25. 2002..Moreover, this action appears to be increased concomitantly with the well-characterized increase in L-type Ca(2+) channel availability in hippocampal neurons with age-in-culture...
Expression of alpha 1D subunit mRNA is correlated with L-type Ca2+ channel activity in single neurons of hippocampal "zipper" slicesK C Chen
Department of Pharmacology, University of Kentucky Medical Center, 800 Rose Street, Lexington, KY 40536, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 97:4357-62. 2000..Thus, these studies support the possibility that the level of alpha(1D) gene expression regulates the density of functional L-VSCCs...
