Cancer Immunity and Gene Expression Data: A Quick Tool for Immunophenotype Evaluation
1Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Emory Vaccine Center, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, Georgia. mhiran2@emory.edu.
Abstract:
The rapid advancement of next generation sequencing technology has resulted in accumulation of many datasets in cancer clinical and research laboratories, many of which do not have bioinformaticians. Xu and colleagues developed a user-friendly web-based tool to define the tumor immunophenotype among patients with cancer. By uploading user-defined datasets on the web, it can systematically track, analyze, and visualize the status of anticancer immune activity and the proportion of tumor-infiltrating immune cells. This tool can help immunologists and clinical researchers to perform quick, efficient, and comprehensive analysis of the tumor immunophenotype.See related article by Xu et al., p. 6575.

What is Gene Expression?
Gene expression is the process in which DNA directs the synthesis of functional products, that is, proteins. Cells can regulate gene expression at various stages. It allows organisms to generate different cell types and enables cells to adapt to internal and external factors.
Genetic Information Flows from DNA to RNA to Protein
A gene is a stretch of DNA that serves as the blueprint for functional RNAs and proteins. Since DNA is made up of nucleotides and proteins consist of amino...
