Understand complex 'omics data to accelerate your research

Discover why QIAGEN Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) is the leading pathway analysis application among the life science research community and is cited in tens of thousands of articles for the analysis, integration and interpretation of data derived from ‘omics experiments. Such experiments include:

  • RNA-seq
  • Small RNA-seq
  • Metabolomics
  • Proteomics
  • Microarrays including miRNA and SNP
  • Small-scale experiments

With QIAGEN IPA you can predict downstream effects and identify new targets or candidate biomarkers. QIAGEN Ingenuity Pathway Analysis helps you perform insightful data analysis and interpretation to understand your experimental results within the context of various biological systems.

Insightful data analysis and interpretation

Data analysis and interpretation with QIAGEN IPA is built on the most comprehensive, manually curated content of the QIAGEN Knowledge Base to help scientists like you understand the biological context of your expression analysis experiments. Powerful algorithms, combined with rich content, provide unique advanced analysis capabilities to help you identify the most significant pathways, whether they are activated or inhibited, and discover potential novel regulatory networks and causal relationships associated with your experimental data.

Contextualize your findings with a massive collection of 'omics data

QIAGEN IPA now offers contextually relevant links to QIAGEN OmicSoft Land Explorer, a database of curated disease ‘omics data with over 500,000 samples. With this new premium tier of IPA, you can explore ‘omics data for individual genes as well as expression correlation across multiple genes with robust visualizations. Jump from a gene of interest in QIAGEN IPA to discover its tissue or cell expression. Explore the diseases and treatment contexts in which it is up-or-down-regulated. Visualize how mutations correlate with changes in expression, the effect of mutations on clinical outcomes and much more. Access to OmicSoft Land Explorer through IPA requires additional licensing.

Further details on the integration of QIAGEN IPA with QIAGEN OmicSoft Land Explorer can be found here.

Go beyond pathway analysis

QIAGEN Ingenuity Pathway Analysis lets you go beyond pathways and explore other facets of your data through Advanced Analytics and now comes standard on all QIAGEN IPA subscriptions. Causal Network Analysis exposes causal relationships associated with your experimental data by expanding upstream analysis to include regulators not directly connected to targets in your dataset. The BioProfiler helps you identify potential therapeutic or toxicity targets, and associated known drugs and biomarkers. IsoProfiler help you identify specific isoforms with specific biological properties.

QIAGEN IPA educational teaching licenses

Want to develop a stellar teaching curriculum to help your students master biological data analysis? With our teaching license package to QIAGEN IPA, you can design and tailor a comprehensive syllabus to provide your students with valuable hands-on experience and proficiencies that’ll set them up for success in their research careers.

Explore other valuable features of QIAGEN IPA:

Causal Network Analysis

Generates multi-level regulatory networks that may explain the gene expression changes exhibited in a dataset. This tool enables the discovery of novel regulatory mechanisms by expanding upstream analysis to include regulators not directly connected to targets in the dataset. 

IsoProfiler

Identify and prioritize isoforms with interesting biological properties. Find genes with RNA transcripts having unusual pattern(s) of expression such as isoform switching or associated with known diseases or functions. Use the fully-integrated human GTEx expression data to identify transcripts with known tissue-specific expression. Visualize isoform-level expression in one or multiple datasets.

Regulator Effects

Provides insights into your data by integrating Upstream Regulator results with Downstream Effects results to create causal hypotheses that explain what may be occurring upstream to cause particular phenotypic or functional outcomes downstream.
