1. Following are several further results that you get from your cancer research. For each result, list the type of array or type of experiment that could have been used to do the study. a. Tissue biopsies were taken from cancer patients. Normal cells were found to have CD81 antigen on their cell surface but stage 4 cancer cells are lacking the antigen; confirming the microarray results. b. Out of thousands of possible therapeutic agents (drugs) that were screened, seven were found to bind to Annexin I. c. In pancreatic cancer there are gains in chromosomes 1q, 2, 3, 5, 7p and losses in 1p, 3p, 6, and 9p.
