Extracted molecule
total RNA
Extraction protocol
Total RNA from biopsy samples was isolated after milling of the frozen sample in a Micro-Dismembrator S (B. Braun, Melsungen, Germany), using the TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, USA), and subsequently passed over a RNeasy Mini Spin Column (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) for the removal of small fragments. Integrity control and sample quantitation of total extracted RNA was performed using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Wilmington, DE, USA).

Description
Gene expression data from a glioblastoma tumor sample
Data processing
For normalization of the expression data we used the MAS5.0 algorithm of the GCOS program (Affymetrix Inc). Target intensity was set to 100 (α1= 0.04 and α2 = 0.06). Detection p-values were assigned to each probe set using the MAS5.0 algorithm (trimmed mean 96 = 100). Quality of the arrays was ensured by inspection of the ß-actin and GAPDH 5′-3′ ratios as well as the percentage of present calls generated by the MAS5.0 algorithm (Affymetrix Inc).
