Table 2. Gene expression analysis of sex hormone concentrations in men and women.
| Men | Women | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| # probes FDR < 0.01 | Gene name | # probes FDR < 0.01 | Gene name | |
| Total testosterone | 0 | 0 | ||
| Sex hormone-binding globulin | 0 | 0 | ||
| Free testosterone | 0 | 0 | ||
| Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate | 0 | 0 | ||
| Androstenedione | 1 | DDIT4 | 0 | |
| Estradiol | 0 | 0 | ||
| Estrone | 0 | 0 | ||
Regression models were adjusted for age, BMI, and technical covariables including RNA quality (RIN), plate layout after RNA amplification, and sample storage time.
To account for multiple testing the Benjamini and Hochberg false discovery rate (FDR) method was used.
