Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of Wild Type and cardiac-specific Bmi1 deletion [human]. Homo sapiens

To explore the primary cause of Dilated Cardiomyopathy in heart samples from DCM-diagnosed patients who had undergone heart transplant (hDCM), we set out to identify differentially expressed genes by massively parallel sequencing of heart samples. Overall design: Methods: Heart mRNA profiles from DCM-diagnosed patients who had undergone heart transplant (hDCM) were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina GAIIx.
