Validation of Microarray Data for selected transcripts by Quantitative RT-PCR. For a subset of genes identified as potentially interesting from GO analysis, quantitative RT-PCR analysis was performed to validate the extent and direction of change. Results are shown subdivided into molecular function, with fold change values for both microarray and quantitative RT-PCR shown along with heat map representation of individual patient values with +/- 20 fold limits.
