Significantly (more than twofold) elevated mRNA and brief description of function

mRNA Description

Agt Encodes for angiotensinogen precursor; plays a role in regulation of blood pressure
Bcl2a1 Encodes for BCL-2 protein; direct transcription target of NF-kappa B in response to inflammatory mediators; up-regulated by GM-CSF, CD40, TNF, and IL-1; anti-apoptotic and cell survival
Birc3 Encodes for inhibition of apoptosis
C3 Encodes for complement component C3; likely involved in innate immune response
Ccl11 Encodes protein that has chemotactic activity for eosinophils, Eotaxin
