In addition to the 44 tissue samples from the degradation and reproducibility analysis, the 16 individual lung cancer tissues and the 61 tissues from two bodies newly measured for this study, we searched the literature for other studies where normal tissues have been profiled. In the GEO (9 (link)), we found 1178 series related to miRNAs. Of these, 722 were from Homo sapiens. Excluding series with low sample count (below 20 samples), 302 series remained. After excluding studies from body fluids such as serum, plasma, blood or urine, we examined the remaining hits for availability of unaffected tissue measurements. The respective data tables were downloaded from GEO and all IDs were matched from the respective platform identifiers to miRBase Version 21 IDs. For the respective studies, raw and normalized data (VSN and quantile normalized) were added to our tissue atlas web repository. These include 43 samples from 9 tissues and 463 miRNAs from GSE11879, 40 samples measured for 709 miRNAs from normal gastric tissue from GSE23739, 48 benign prostate tissues measured for 480 miRNAs from series GSE54516 and 32 benign prostate tissues measured for 825 miRNAs from series GSE76260. The data have been used partially in the present manuscript, all data are included in the web-based tissue atlas resource.
