Reproducibility of Arrays
| Treatment | Regression | Correlation coefficient |
|---|---|---|
| Saline | 1.1271x–1.280 | 0.9484 |
| LPS | 0.9459x–1.040 | 0.9715 |
| SP | 1.1363x–0.126 | 0.9528 |
| Antigen | 0.9245x–0.620 | 0.9840 |
Mice were treated with SP, LPS, antigen, and saline and sacrificed 24 hours after stimulation. Bladders from all experimental treatments were randomly distributed into the following groups: A) RNA extraction (n = 3); B) replicate of RNA extraction (see Materials and Methods). Regression lines were obtained by plotting gene expression results of group A versus B.
