Part of genes associated with chemokines in microarray data were validated by QuantiGene Plex 2.0 Reagent System.

<p>The curves were showed the gene expression in 0, 3, 6, 12, 18 weeks <i>p.i</i> groups. The above bricks were the temporal gene expressions in microarray. Gene expression is represented as heat map with relatively unchanged genes coloured black, down regulated genes coloured green, up-regulated genes coloured red and no signal genes coloured grey. Each sample of individual time-point is from more than 6 mice. The assay is normalized by three housekeeping genes and operated by duplicates. The relative quantities are the mean values.
