Table 3. Alternative splicing of CD90+CSCs and CD90+ NTSCs.
CD90+CSCs | CD90+NTSCs | |
Alternative 3′ splice site | 127 | 77 |
Alternative 5′ splice site | 115 | 74 |
Alternative first exon | 23 | 15 |
Alternative last exon | 11 | 11 |
Mutually exclusive exon | 1.7 | 0.3 |
Intron retention | 44 | 23 |
Exon skipping | 61 | 45 |
Total number of alternative splicing events | 383 | 245 |
Events are expressed as means. More alternative splicing events were observed in CD90+CSCs as compared with CD90+NTSCs (P<0.05).
