TABLE 5

Selected dexamethasone-inducible genes identified in A549 cells

A549 cells were either not treated or treated with dexamethasone (1 μM) for 2, 4, 6 or 18 h. RNA was prepared and microarray analysis performed using recommended Affymetrix methods. Data (n = 3), analyzed using the P-fold algorithm, are presented as relative fold induction (R), verses not treated at each time point. P values are indicated (P).
