Gene Expression Profiling of IL-17A-Treated Synovial Fibroblasts from the Human Temporomandibular Joint

Scatter plots of microarray analysis. Of the 50,739 genes on the DNA microarray, the 27,583 genes that were expressed in synovial fibroblasts were compared between synovial fibroblasts treated with IL-17A and nontreated control. Of these 27,583 genes, 1,710 genes (389 upregulated genes and 1321 downregulated genes) showed a greater than twofold difference between IL-17A-treated and control cells.
