Specifications
Organism/cell line/tissue Human/blood leukocytes
Sex Males
Sequencer or array type Splice junction microarrays
Data format Raw (CELL files) and processed
Experimental factors Parkinson's disease, Deep Brain Stimulation (pre- and post-treatment, on and following 1 h off electrical stimulation)
Experimental features RNA was isolated from blood leukocyte samples of three Parkinson's disease patients prior to deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment and post-DBS, both on and following 1 h off electrical stimulation, and age- and gender-matched healthy control volunteers. Samples were prepared for hybridization on Affymetrix human junction prototype microarrays (HJAY) and served to characterize alternative splicing changes pre- and post-treatment and as compared with healthy controls.
Consent All of the study participants signed informed consent forms prior to inclusion in the study.
Sample source location Jerusalem, Israel, Department of Neurosurgery, Hadassah University Hospital, The Hadassah-Hebrew University Faculty of Medicine
