A Comparative Genomic Study in Schizophrenic and in Bipolar Disorder Patients, Based on Microarray Expression Profiling Meta-Analysis

Table 3

Number of DE genes and probesets, occurring from comparison of SZ gene expression profile and control expression profile. Genes are characterized as overexpressed when they present positive FC > in log2 scale and as downregulated when they present negative FC, respectively. Out of 54921 probesets and 38500 genes of Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 Array, we derived a much smaller number of probesets and genes.
