Expression of mitochondrial ETC genes increases from E8.5 to E9.5. (A) Heatmap representation of mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC)-related genes that were differentially expressed between E8.5 and E9.5 in a microarray analysis. n=3 independent sample replicates. Fold change ≥1.5 versus E8.5. P<0.05 versus E8.5 (one-way ANOVA with Tukey's post-hoc test). Multiple testing correction, Benjamini–Hochberg FDR; hierarchical clustering with Manhattan distance. E8.5, ss 10-12; E9.5, ss 24-25; E10.5, ss 35-37. Components of each complex were picked up by referring to gene ontology terms. (B) Quantification of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)/nuclear DNA (nDNA) ratio by qPCR. No statistically significant difference (n.s.; two-tailed Welch's t-test) was observed between E8.5 (ss 10-12) and E9.5 (ss 23-24); n=7 and n=4 independent sample replicates. Data are represented as mean±s.d.
