Data indicate the fold increase ± S.E.M. in gene expression with the indicated accession number. For each gene cluster, the genes are listed in decreasing order of magnitude, taking into account the α1A-AR fold values as reference point. Data are from two separate hybridizations from two separate RNA preparations and compared in a four-way analysis as described under Materials and Methods. Fold changes are similar among the subtypes.
