Figure 3. Gene expression in familial EE patients vs. sporadic EE patients.

Figure 3

A. The peak eosinophil number in distal esophageal biopsies from familial EE and sporadic EE patients are presented in a dot plot; the line is the mean. B. The expression of the EE transcript consisting of 574 genes in familial EE and sporadic patients is presented in a heat diagram. Up regulated genes are in red, down regulated genes are in blue, and yellow corresponds to gene expression unchanged compared to controls. Peak eosinophil number in distal esophageal biopsies of each patient is shown at the right. C. The average expression of the EE transcript signature in familial EE and sporadic EE is presented in a heat diagram. Each line corresponds to the average of the patents in each group. Up regulated genes are in red, down regulated genes are in blue, and yellow corresponds to gene expression unchanged compared to controls.
