Figure 3. Differentially expressed genes overlapping in healthy aging rat iliac arteries and aortas.
A. Venn diagram shows differentially expressed genes determined by our analysis of healthy aging rat iliac arteries and healthy aging rat thoracic aortas. The two gene lists were compared to find common differentially expressed transcripts. A 2.0 fold change and p<.05 significance cut-offs were used. No multiple correction was employed. B. Heat map of differentially expressed genes overlapping in healthy aging rat iliac arteries and aortas. Selected genes, including Myl9, from the 114 transcripts overlapping in healthy aging iliac arteries and thoracic aortas, are shown in a heatmap displaying their expression levels in young and old aortas. Color bar shown in Log2.
