Microarray analysis of blood samples from immune and infectious disease patients

Microarray gene expression profiling of peripheral blood samples obtained from patients with various immune and infectious diseases: systemic onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (n=67), systemic lupus erythematosus (n=95), melioidosis (n=22), agammaglobulinemia (n=10) and pulmonary tuberculosis (n=9). Patient samples were compared to peripheral blood samples from healthy control subjects (n=104).

This experiment includes additional blood samples from HIV, diabetes, B-cell deficiency and recovered pulmonary tuberculosis patients; these samples were not included in the LifeMap analysis.
