The Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products (RAGE) and the Lung
Figure 2
Tissue distribution of RAGE. (a) Relative number of expressed-sequence clones per million identified in tissue and species-specific databases [11]. The table was updated on 07/20/09. (b) Quantitative analysis of RAGE mRNA expression in healthy human tissue. Two sets of RAGE-specific primers, RAqu_2 (black) and RAqu_3 (white), were used to compare RAGE expression in 16 human tissues of healthy donors in quantitative RT-PCR analysis. The transcript numbers of RAGE were compared with the transcript numbers of GAPDH in 2 L cDNA. The mean and SEM of two separate light cycler runs are displayed (adapted from [12]).
