## GSE16873: a breast cancer microarray dataset

### Description

GSE16873 is a breast cancer study (Emery et al, 2009) downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). GSE16873 covers twelve patient cases, each with HN (histologically normal), ADH (ductal hyperplasia), and DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) RMA samples. Due to the size limit of this package, we split this GSE16873 into two halves, each including 6 patients with their HN and DCIS but not ADH tissue types. This gage package only includes the first half dataset for 6 patients as this example dataset gse16873. Most of our demo analyses are done on the first half dataset, except for the advanced analysis where we use both halves datasets with all 12 patients. Details section below gives more information.

### Usage

    data(gse16873)

### Details

Raw data for these two half datasets were processed separately using two different methods, FARMS and RMA, respectively to generate the non-biological data heterogeneity. The first half dataset is named as gse16873, the second half dataset named gse16873.2. We also have the full dataset, gse16873.full, which includes all HN, ADH and DCIS samples of all 12 patients, processed together using FARMS. The second half dataset plus the full dataset and the original BMP6 dataset used in GAGE paper and earlier versions of gage is supplied with another package, gageData.

### Examples

    data(gse16873)
    #check the heterogenity of the two half datasets
    boxplot(data.frame(gse16873))

    #column/smaple names
    cn=colnames(gse16873)
    hn=grep('HN',cn, ignore.case =TRUE)
    adh=grep('ADH',cn, ignore.case =TRUE)
    dcis=grep('DCIS',cn, ignore.case =TRUE)
    print(hn)
    print(dcis)

    data(kegg.gs)
    lapply(kegg.gs[1:3],head)
    head(rownames(gse16873))
    gse16873.kegg.p <- gage(gse16873, gsets = kegg.gs,
        ref = hn, samp = dcis)
