Lowly Expressed Ribosomal Protein S19 in the Feces of Patients with Colorectal Cancer

Figure 1

Six differentially expressed p53-associated ribosomal proteins in feces of CRC patients. Differentially expressed genes with statistic significance ( š‘ƒ < 0 . 0 5 ) are grouped by average-linkage hierarchical clustering. Each row represents a gene and each column is a sample. Group L, five patients (one at Dukesā€™ stage B, one at stage C, and three at stage D). Group E, six patients (two at Dukesā€™ stage A, two at stage B, and two at stage C) and two normal control pools (NP01 and NP02). NP01, pooled by two healthy men; NP02, pooled by three healthy women. A region cluster depicts the genes based on the similarity between their expressions in cases. High expression is shown in deep yellow, low expression in blue. Arrow indicates RPS19.
