Differential Transcript Profiles of MHC Class Ib(Qa-1, Qa-2, and Qa-10) and Aire Genes during the Ontogeny of Thymus and Other Tissues
Figure 1
Analysis of MHC class Ib and Aire transcripts in different tissues of C57BL/6 mice. Relative quantification (RQ) of messenger RNA for (a) H2-Q7(Qa-2), (b) H2-T23(Qa-1), (c) H2-Q10(Qa-10), and (d) Aire is representative of the mean values of 2−ΔΔCt. Tissue samples were obtained in triplicate from different animals for each age analyzed. Each experiment was independently performed at least three times. Data were analyzed statistically by two-way ANOVA followed by the Bonferroni multiple comparison test. Values close to the level of significance are marked with ().
