Results comparison between microarray and real-time-PCR. Five selected transcripts among those identified by microarray analysis were validated by the real-time-PCR analysis. The three transcripts selected were: BarH-like homeobox 1 (BARH); chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSP); growth arrest-specific 2 (GAS); zinc finger protein 185 (LIM domain) (ZFP); NK6 transcription factor (NK6T). The graph shows the folds of induction or suppression as derived by the two methods. The data are expressed as the means ± SE of three independent analyses.
