Mahfouz, A.M.E.T.A. (author), Van de Giessen, M. (author), Van der Maaten, L.J.P. (author), Huisman, S.M.H. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author), Hawrylycz, M.J. (author), Lelieveldt, B.P.F. (author)The Allen Brain Atlases enable the study of spatially resolved, genome-wide gene expression patterns across the mammalian brain. Several explorative studies have applied linear dimensionality reduction methods such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and classical Multi-Dimensional Scaling (cMDS) to gain insight into the spatial organization...journal article 2014

Taskesen, E. (author), Babaei, S. (author), Reinders, M.J.M. (author), De Ridder, J. (author)Background Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is characterized by various cytogenetic and molecular abnormalities. Detection of these abnormalities is important in the risk-classification of patients but requires laborious experimentation. Various studies showed that gene expression profiles (GEP), and the gene signatures derived from GEP, can be used...journal article 2015

Taskesen, E. (author), Staal, F.J.T. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author)Background The wingless-Int (WNT) pathway has an essential role in cell regulation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). For Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), the malignant counterpart of HSC, currently only a selective number of genes of the WNT pathway are analyzed by using either gene expression or DNA-methylation profiles for the identification of...journal article 2015

Sontrop, HMJ (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author), Moerland, Perry D. (author)Background: At the molecular level breast cancer comprises a heterogeneous set of subtypes associated with clear differences in gene expression and clinical outcomes. Single sample predictors (SSPs) are built via a two-stage approach consisting of clustering and subtype predictor construction based on the cluster labels of individual cases. SSPs...journal article 2016

Mahfouz, A.M.E.T.A. (author), Huisman, S.M.H. (author), Lelieveldt, B.P.F. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author)The immense complexity of the mammalian brain is largely reflected in the underlying molecular signatures of its billions of cells. Brain transcriptome atlases provide valuable insights into gene expression patterns across different brain areas throughout the course of development. Such atlases allow researchers to probe the molecular mechanisms...journal article 2017

(author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author), Ferrari, Michel D. (author), Tolner, Else A. (author), de Vries, Boukje (author), van den Maagdenberg, Arn M.J.M. (author)Familial hemiplegic migraine type 1 (FHM1) is a rare monogenic subtype of migraine with aura caused by mutations in CACNA1A that encodes the α1A subunit of voltage-gated CaV2.1 calcium channels. Transgenic knock-in mice that carry the human FHM1 R192Q missense mutation (‘FHM1 R192Q mice’) exhibit an increased susceptibility to cortical spreading...journal article 2017

(author)Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a muscular dystrophy with high incidence of learning and behavioural problems and is associated with neurodevelopmental disorders. To gain more insights into the role of dystrophin in this cognitive phenotype, we performed a comprehensive analysis of the expression patterns of dystrophin isoforms across...journal article 2017

Transcriptomic Signatures Associated With Regional Cortical Thickness Changes in Parkinson’s DiseaseKeo, D.L. (author), Dzyubachyk, Oleh (author), Van Der Grond, Jeroen (author), van Hilten, Jacobus J. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author), Mahfouz, A.M.E.T.A. (author)Cortical atrophy is a common manifestation in Parkinson’s disease (PD), particularly in advanced stages of the disease. To elucidate the molecular underpinnings of cortical thickness changes in PD, we performed an integrated analysis of brain-wide healthy transcriptomic data from the Allen Human Brain Atlas and patterns of cortical thickness...journal article 2021

Michielsen, L.C.M. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author), Mahfouz, A.M.E.T.A. (author)Most regulatory elements, especially enhancer sequences, are cell population-specific. One could even argue that a distinct set of regulatory elements is what defines a cell population. However, discovering which non-coding regions of the DNA are essential in which context, and as a result, which genes are expressed, is a difficult task. Some...journal article 2024
