MeSHer uses a simple statistical approach to identify biological concepts in the form of Medical Subject Headings (MeSH terms) obtained from the PubMed database that are significantly overrepresented within the identified gene set relative to those associated with the overall collection of genes on the underlying DNA microarray platform. As a demonstration, we apply this approach to gene lists acquired from a published study of the effects of angiotensin II (Ang II) treatment on cardiac gene expression and demonstrate that this approach can aid in the interpretation of the resulting significant gene set.
