Our main goal is to establish an up-to-date microarray core facility, dedicated to provide high quality microarrays, technical supports and services to researchers in genomic medicine nationwide. Access to this high quality microarray will allow our researchers to be on the cutting edge of genetic research, focus on microarray-based gene expression profiling to explore the pathogenic mechanism of human diseases. The microarray technology is particularly important to clinical medicine in post-genomic era. It will provide high throughput and valuable insights into differences in an individual’s disease as compared with constitutional mRNA expression. The microarray information can provide tissue-specific disease signatures and therefore, can improve disease diagnosis, disease classification, prognosis evaluation, identify biomarkers, individualized patient treatment and improve treatment outcome. Although the cDNA microarray is extremely powerful, the current application is still limited. The major obstacles are its high cost and difficulty in maintaining good quality microarray and experiment. The purpose of this project presented here is to establish the Core Lab and libraries for high quality service of microarray under the reasonable price. The core facility will provide services including target labeling, microarray hybridization, colorimetric and fluorescence detections, image digitization, and cluster analysis. In addition, the services of custom-made chips including membrane- and glass-format microarray are also provided. According to the work capacity, microarray core facility will open for the investigators of academic and research institution participated in National Research Program of Genomic Medicine to apply. The core facility has been established in National Taiwan University College of Medicine for more than four years. Also, the Core Lab offered related research consultation and education training to medical campus. National Science Council supports our core facility from 2002 to set up the “Microarray Core Facility for Genomic Medicine”, which offers nation-wide microarray services right away. The microarray core facility has provided complete microarray services for dozens of institutions, including the researchers of Taiwan University, Chung-Shan, Yang-Ming University, Chang-Geng University, Chung-Shan Medical University, and so on, for 2,853 pieces of microarray membranes including human, mouse, and custom-made chips. There are still hundreds of chips waiting for preparation. We had published 7 papers on SCI journals and submitted 3 papers. The users of this core facility also had published 5 papers on SCI journals and submitted 2 papers (see publication). We will provide services by the enrolled order and work capacity. To provide a large number and swift microarray services and develop new microarray format such as cell-based siRNA and promoter screening microarrays, the additional equipment and personnel are essential.
