Expression profiling to identify candidate genes associated with allergic phenotypes.
Transcript profiling reveals valuable insights to molecular and cellular activity related to disease. Gene expression profiles provide clues as to how tissues or cells in a particular environment may respond to stimuli. Gene-targeted examination of transcript changes is accomplished by employing a quantitative PCR approach using cDNA prepared from isolated RNA.
