Transcriptional profiling of the regenerated and intact contralateral carotid arteries 18 months postimplantation. (A) Delta Ct values for the measured transcripts (IL1B, IL6, CXCL8, ICAM1, MMP2, KDR, NR2F2 and SNAI2) in the endothelial lysate (left) and homogenate of the de-endothelialised blood vessel (right); (B) Heat map indicating the differences between the endothelial lysate and vascular homogenate of the regenerated artery in relation to the respective RNA fractions in the contralateral intact artery and between endothelial lysate and homogenate of the de-endothelialised regenerated artery normalised to the mRNA expression in these compartments in the contralateral intact artery. Blue, grey and red colours mean fold change ≤0.50, 0.51–1.99, and ≥2.00, respectively, compared to the contralateral intact artery or homogenate of the de-endothelialised regenerated artery.
