Table IV. Gene expression analysis of proteins identified by MALDI TOF MS from 2D-DIGE experiments. Significant genes according to multivariate statistics indicated^a.

^a The statistical analyses are based on non-dilated versus dilated thoracic aorta samples in TAV and BAV.

^b ABS (loading)-ABS(jack-knife conf interval) meta probe set array expression data, dilated higher (green), non-dilated higher (blue), TAV.

^c Difference in average mean meta probe set expression between the groups indicated.

^d ABS (loading)-ABS(jack-knife conf interval) meta probe set array expression data, dilated higher (green), non-dilated higher (blue), BAV.

^e Previously published.

^f Number of protein spots identified on the gel.
