MPL0 7 (32)4 (33)
EPOR 132 (87) 6 (27)4 (33)
ERBB2 122 (81) 21 (95)9 (75)
IGF1R 81 (54)NDND

EPOR: erythropoietin receptor; ERBB2: human epidermal growth factor; IGF1R: insulin growth factor-1 receptor; MPL: thrombopoietin receptor; ND: not determined; RCC: renal cell carcinoma; RMA: robust microarray averages. Detectable expression is determined by a R M A 5 0 .
