As revealed by
gene set enrichment analysis, the MAPK pathway was inactivated in the combination treatment group compared with the untreated group.
We applied
gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA)(23) to expression array data using KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) pathways.
A team led by Pablo Tamayo and Jill Mesirov of the Broad Institute and University of California, San Diego, and Broad bioinformatician Arthur Liberzon, has generated «hallmark» gene sets from the Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB), one of the most comprehensive and widely used databases for
gene set enrichment analysis.

genes.
Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) is a microarray data - mining technique used to determine whether there is coordinated differential expression or «enrichment» in a set of functionally related genes when comparing control and experimental samples [3

gene sets.
