Figure 2From: Developmental changes in the transcriptome of the rat choroid plexus in relation to neuroprotectionDevelopmental profiles of tight junction-associated genes in rat choroid plexus. Analysis was performed on lateral ventricle choroid plexus at four developmental stages. Affymetrix and Illumina RNA-Seq techniques were combined and data expressed as Log2 values of fold change relative to adult (Log2 FCad). For selective genes that were absent in Affymetrix chips, qRT-PCR was performed. Strongly expressed genes are indicated in bold. (A and B) show gene expression profiles for claudins with decreasing and increasing expression during development, respectively. (C and D) show gene expression profiles for selected other TJ-associated protein transcripts. Abbreviations: E15, embryonic day 15; E19, embryonic day 19; P2, postnatal day 2; ad, adult. Correspondences between gene symbols, common names, and accession numbers are listed in Table 1.Back to article page
