Clariom Assays
The power of Clariom assays
Recent advanced transcriptome analyses have uncovered thousands of splice variants and long non-coding (lnc)RNAs, providing new sources for biomarker discovery. Given the complexity of the transcriptome, however, finding informative expression biomarkers is challenging, time-consuming, and costly. Clariom assays, built using the latest transcriptome knowledge from multiple databases, are simple and fast tools for finding high-fidelity expression biomarkers. They are compatible with clinical research samples, available in scalable formats for different throughput needs, and include flexible, intuitive software for fast and simple analysis.
In addition, our new Clariom GO Screen provides high throughput, low-cost secondary screening of drug compounds in gene expression research. Learn more ›

The evidence
With increased knowledge of the transcriptome, a growing body of evidence has implicated lncRNAs as critical regulators of coding RNA and alternative splicing. Aberrant expression of these regulatory lncRNAs has been increasingly documented in a wide range of diseases, establishing their potential for future use as biomarkers and therapeutic agents.

Figure 1. 13 candidate dysregulated lncRNAs identified by transcriptome-level assays were verified by qRT-PCR. Of those, eight samples expressed statistically significant differences in infected (T) vs. control (C) cells. qRT-PCR verification of the same eight samples revealed four lncRNAs that were significantly differentially expressed in H. pylori-positive (P) vs. H. pylori-negative (N) cells.

Figure 2. HTA & Clariom D human arrays deliver the equivalent accuracy in gene expression measurements throughout the transcriptome as sequencing a sample across 2 full lanes on a HiSeq™ 2000 System. By evaluating a linear tissue mixture model in which RNA from 2 samples are mixed in known proportions, the accuracy of expression was evaluated across all measured exons. The y-axis is the calculated error or, mean absolute deviation (MAD), (median(|x - median(x)|) of (D-C)/(B-A)) where A = Universal Human Reference RNA (UHRR), Agilent Technologies, Inc.; B = Human Brain Reference RNA (HBRR), Life Technologies, Inc.; C = 75%A/25%B; and D = 25%A/75%B.. Array MAD was calculated from all combinations of n = 3 arrays per sample, where n = 4 arrays per sample were available. Box plots display all 256 possible combinations of n = 3 arrays per sample, with box plot whiskers representing the min and max MAD value. Array target was prepared using the GeneChip WT PLUS reagent kit from 100ng of total RNA.
