  • Assessment of APAF1 expression in the Human Gene Expression Map (Lukk et al., 2010). The database encompasses 5372 samples hybridized to the Affymetrix HG-U133A platform and enables the comparison of the expression levels relative to 96 biologic groups. Here, the expression of APAF1 in subtypes of leukemia was determined relative to the 96 groups (Kwiecinska et al., 2011). Direction of change and P values, respectively, are indicated. Significant increased expression is indicated by plus (+), significant decreased expression indicated by minus (−) and non-differentially expressed is indicated by +/−. A P value of 0.05 was considered significant.
