  1. Probe sets that fulfill the two-fold change criterion are marked with the + and - signs following the gene symbols based on the direction of the expression where + denotes up-regulation and - denotes down-regulation of Th1 specific genes. In addition, probe sets that do not fulfill the fold change criterion are marked in the lists with “<2”. The known associations of genes in Th cell functions or subset specific gene expressions are listed in the table. *) Annotation based on Ingenuity Pathway Analysis ® by Ingenuity Systems.
