Temporal expression changes. A: plasma proteins in spleen (microarray results). Data are mean log2-ER ± SE for 26 genes (complement and coagulation cascade) and 55 genes (secretory proteins) with similar expression profiles. The lists of genes and accession numbers are in Additional file 4. B-D: RT-qPCR analyses performed with SYBR Green based assays in skin (B), spleen (C), and head kidney (D). Data are mean -ΔΔCt ± SE. Significant differences from control (n = 4, P < 0.05) are indicated with *. COL3, Collagenase 3 precursor; MMP13, Matrix metalloproteinase-13; CheTry, Chemytrypsin; PGDS, Prostaglandin D synthase; STEAP, Metalloreductase STEAP4; Try2, trypsin 2.
