  • Identification of potential sources of error and variation.

    • Main Results:

    • Microarray use in diet-gene studies is prone to technical challenges and errors.
    • Subtle gene transcription changes in nutrition can be difficult to detect reliably.
    • Conflicting data, missed effects, and false leads are potential outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • Careful design and execution are essential for valid microarray studies.
    • Standardization and best practices are needed for reliable nutritional research.
    • Recommendations are provided for researchers new to microarray technology.
