Figure 1

Heatmap of the 100 most differentially expressed genes in AAA. To show consistency of the results between the two platforms, both Illumina (15 left columns) and Affymetrix (4 right columns) results are presented. Sample IDs are on top (see Table 1 for details) and gene symbols on the right. A listing of these 100 genes with expression values in both conditions as well as the FDR values is provided [see the additional file 2: Table II].
