Expression of Chit1 and AMCase mRNAs in mouse tissues.

<p>Quantification of Chit1 (A) and AMCase (B) mRNAs in mouse tissues. Both chitinases were quantified by real-time PCR using the standard template DNA. All values obtained were expressed as molecules per 10 ng of total RNA. C. Ratios of AMCase to Chit1. All mRNA copy numbers were derived based on the same standard dilutions. The upper panel indicates the actual number, whereas the lower panel shows the logarithm of the values.
