  • 5-a Mean and S.D. of three PCR determinations. Each determination was obtained by quantifying gel images such as in Fig.4B, using standard curves similar to the one in Fig. 1. All values were normalized to GAPDH expression levels.

  • 5-b Relative to control WT, which is defined as 1 for either CYP1A1 or CYP1B1.
