  1. Differential expression of selected genes analyzed by microarray and RT-qPCR. For microarray analysis, the lowest (Min), the highest (Max) and the average (Mean) fold change values of all the respective probes are shown. For RT-qPCR analysis, fold change (FC) and statistical significance (p-value) for both SYBR® Green and TaqMan® results are shown. In bold are the genes validated with statistical significance. HBA2 was not present in the array chip.
  2. *Normalization performed vs. ACTB only.
