Mirnome (miRNA) expression profiles.

<p>The samples analyzed were as follow: Thymocytes (n = 2) or pancreas-infiltrating lymphocytes (PILs) (n = 2) derived from pre-diabetic (1 mo) or peripheral CD3⁺ T lymphocytes derived from pre-diabetic (1 mo n = 2 or 7 mo n = 3) NOD mice. These cell types featured unique mirnome expression signature. The dendrograms and heat map were obtained using cluster and tree-view algorithms through the Agilent GeneSpring platform. Heat map legend: red = up-regulation, green = down-regulation, black = unmodulated (Pearson correlation metrics).
