Molecular Profiling of Spermatozoa Reveals Correlations between Morphology and Gene Expression: A Novel Biomarker Panel for Male Infertility

Figure 5

Expression profile of candidate genes in different human tissues. Expression values (in (RPKM)) of HDAC4, CARHSP1, SPATA18, AURKA, CCDC60, DNAH2, and CFAP46 in 30 tissues from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) consortium. For each gene, the colored circle belonging to each tissue indicates the valid RPKM value of all samples in the tissue. RPKM: reads per kilobase of transcript per million mapped reads.
