The Connectivity Map: Using Gene-Expression Signatures to Connect Small Molecules, Genes, and Disease

Explore this paper's citation graph

Summary

The first installment of a reference collection of gene-expression profiles from cultured human cells treated with bioactive small molecules is created, and it is demonstrated that this “Connectivity Map” resource can be used to find connections among small molecules sharing a mechanism of action, chemicals and physiological processes, and diseases and drugs.
