NIH3T3 cells in triplicate were cultured in media and mock-treated or treated with 10 nM, 100 nM or 1 μM Shield-1 for 24 hours. Total RNA from each of the twelve samples was extracted and hybridized to the MEEBO oligonucleotide array. The false discovery rate (FDR) was obtained using unpaired two-class Significance Analysis of Microarrays (SAM), and genes whose mRNA levels changed significantly upon Shield-1 treatment were identified.
