Transcript levels were standardized to glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) levels, which were the same in the lungs of both strains. Data is summarized as mean ± standard deviation for each group. For each of the 25 gene transcript levels, C57BL/6NHsd and C3H/HeNHsd were compared with the two-sided two-sample t-test. P-values less than 0.05 were significant. As this was an exploratory study, p-values were not adjusted for multiple comparisons.

Significant differences are shown in red.
