CGAP，The Cancer Genome Anatomy Project

CGAP简介

The goal of the NCI's Cancer Genome Anatomy Project is to determine the gene expression profiles of normal, precancer, and cancer cells, leading eventually to improved detection, diagnosis, and treatment for the patient. By collaborating with scientists worldwide, CGAP seeks to increase its scientific expertise and expand its databases for the benefit of all cancer researchers.

CGAP计划是一项由NCI建立和主持的交叉学科的计划，用来产生用于解码肿瘤细胞的分子结构所需的信息和技术工具。CGAP被分为五个互补的自主部分，每一个都有它自己的目的，信息学工具和资源。The Human Tumor Gene Index (hTGI)人类肿瘤基因索引指明了在人类肿瘤发生过程中的基因表达。Molecular Profiling (MP)分子表达谱展示了用前列腺作为例子来从分子水平分析人类组织样品的概念。The Cancer Chromosome Aberration Project (CCAP)癌症染色体变异计划（CCAP）描述了同恶性转移相关的染色体改变。The Genetic Annotation Index (GAI)遗传注解索引指明和描绘了同癌症相关的多态性。The Mouse Tumor Gene Index (mTGI)小鼠肿瘤基因索引（mTGI）确定了在小鼠肿瘤发生过程中的基因表达。 Continue Reading
