Airway epithelial cell function is dysregulated in COPD
• Barrier function
• Mucus hyperplasia/metaplasia
• Proliferation, differentiation and repair
• Inflammatory mediator production
• Interactions with inflammatory cells

Aims of the study• Investigate airway epithelial gene expression in non-smokers,
healthy smokers and smokers with COPD in relation to clinical phenotype
• Establish relevant in vitro cell models to study in detail the effects of cigarette smoke on epithelial cells
• Increase understanding of molecular mechansisms underlying epithelial pathophysiology in COPD and provide novel targets or pathways for therapeutic intervention

Affymetrix U133A,B microarray analysis
• 70 samples assayed• Software
• ZAM: low level analysis, in-house• SAGx: differential expression, Bioconductor• Clustering and visualisation: Spotfire, Dchip
• Contrast normalisation• RMA type of index• Penalised t-test to compare subject categories• Close to 45000 probesets• Gene Sets from KEGG and Biocarta• Roughly 150 clinical variables
![Page 31: Expression of genes involved in oxidative stress responses in airway epithelial cells of COPD smokers Per Broberg Biological Sciences AstraZeneca R&D Lund](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649d2b5503460f94a015de/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Penalised t-test and FDR
• Low expressed genes less accurately assayed: higher risk of false positives
• Solution: add a penalty to the denomimator of the t-test statistica
• To control false positive rate: estimate False Discovery Rate and threshold

ES = enrichment scoreMES = maximum ES
Gene Set Enrichment Analysis schematically
From Mootha et al (2003)
Calculation of MES
1) Order genes by expression difference
2) For each gene set: Calculate running sum of ES along all genes. Add to sum if gene belongs to gene set, otherwise subtract
3) Take maximum (partial) sum

Transcription Factor Binding Sites(TFBSs)
• A transcription factor (TF) is a protein that mediates the binding of RNA polymerase and the initiation of transcription
• TRANSFAC is a database on eukaryotic TFs, their genomic binding sites and DNA-binding
• Which TFBSs are overrepresented in a set of regulated genes?
• Elkon et al. (2003) presents an algorithm to score upstream regions in terms of TF binding affinity

Over-representation of Transcripion Factor Binding Sites
Idea: compare distribution of hits among genes under study to a background set.Let n1,
n2, and n3 denote the number
of background promoters containing one, two, or at least three hits, respectively. Assuming that T is randomly chosen out of B, the analytical score for the probability of observing at least h hits in T is:
