Gene expression differences between the brachial and femoral artery of the Rapacz HC swine. Sus scrofa

The age groups were used to investigate how gene expression differences between the brachial and the femoral artery effect the heterogeneous atherosclerotic disease initiation and progression. Overall design: Total RNA was isolated from brachial and femoral arteries of four one week, six one year, and five two year old Rapacz HC swine.

本研究设置不同年龄组别，旨在探究肱动脉（brachial artery）与股动脉（femoral artery）间的基因表达差异对异质性动脉粥样硬化性疾病发生与进展的影响。实验整体设计：从4只1周龄、6只1龄及5只2龄的Rapacz HC猪的肱动脉与股动脉中分离总RNA（total RNA）。
