From: Gene expression profile of bladder tissue of patients with ulcerative interstitial cystitis
Heatmap visualization of the top 100 B- and T-cell markers. Using a biomarker search with Genevestigator [33] we identified the top 100 probe sets that were specific for "B-lymphocytes" (A) and "T-lymphocytes" (B), respectively, and visualized them as a heatmap. For each probe set the heatmap shows the log2-ratio against the average of our entire data set. For both the B- and T-lymphocytes, a large proportion of the probe sets was upregulated in "ni" and "ulcus" as compared to the healthy tissue. Additional file 6 (Blympho-top100 cluster) and Additional file 7 (Tlympho-top100 cluster) list the top 100 probe sets and their corresponding gene names. Ulcer tissue (ulcus); non-ulcer tissue in patients with Hunner's ulcers (ni).
