From: Identification of rat lung – prominent genes by a parallel DNA microarray hybridization
Relative mRNA abundance of lung-prominent genes determined by relative real-time PCR. The mRNAs from six organs were reverse-transcribed to cDNA and quantified by relative real-time PCR. All of the genes were run on the same plate with 18S rRNA as an endogenous reference. The results were expressed as % of lung. Data shown are means ± S.E. (n = 3 biological replications).The mRNA expression level of all the genes in the lung was significantly higher in other organs (P < 0.05).
