For each indicated set of gene, ratios of variances and 95% confidence intervals are reported. Numbers are bold if the model is less like human HD than the Emx-BDNF KO model and unity falls outside the 95% confidence interval. In those cases, the indicated model is significantly less like human HD than the Emx-BDNF KO model. Numbers are lightface if unity falls within the 95% confidence interval. In those cases, differences are considered indeterminate. It is important to note that there were no cases of a model being significantly more like human HD than the Emx-BDNF KO model.
