Figure 4. MiRNA expression pattern.

Figure 4

(A) MiRNAs that show Ct<36 were considered as expressed. The number of miRNAs expressed ranged from 315.83−362.17 with a maximum and minimum numbers detected in IS4 and IS1 respectively. The SD ranged from 19.28−43.37, the maximum being in IS2 and the minimum in IS1. The values are presented as Mean ± SD of the number of miRNAs detected in each group. (B) The number of miRNAs that were significantly modulated (≥1.5 fold; P<0.05) following the injury over the time point matched sham controls increased with the height and weight of the free falling metal rod except in the IS3 group where the number of significantly modulated miRNAs was marginally greater than the IS4 group. (C) Overlapping miRNA data analysis for significantly modulated miRNAs in the injury groups was done using the online Venn diagram generation tool [Oliveros (2007). VENNY.
