The table shows the comparison of gene expression data from microarray and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) studies. The detected changes in the expression level are expressed in fold change (FC) in the microarray study and relative quantity (RQ) in the PCR study. Among the representative list of 60 genes of interest, 39 were down-regulated (a) and 21 were up regulated (b) exclusively by P2rx7 deletion in the mouse amygdala using the selection filters of >2.0-FC in the microarray study. Significant differences were calculated by a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Benjamini–Hochberg's multiple correction, with p < 0.05. Significant down- or up-regulatory effects of P2rx7 deficiency were confirmed for 29 of the genes by TaqMan-based quantitative real-time PCR (TLDA). Samples of RNA from the microarray experiment (n = 4) and from an independent experiment (n = 4) were measured for each group on TLDA and the results were evaluated by RealTime StatMiner software. (a) Twenty-five genes among the total of 39 were changed significantly (two-way ANOVA, p < 0.05) and showed similarity in size and direction by both methods. (b) Four out of 21 genes were changed significantly (two-way ANOVA, p < 0.05) and showed similarity in size and direction by both methods. The TaqMan ID gives the product number of Applied Biosystems Gene Expression Assay used for the validation of the corresponding gene.
