  1. For qPCR results, data are means with SE for relative expression levels (arbitrary units). PCR conditions and the primer pairs used are as described in “Materials and Methods” section. Values are shown as a fold difference between mutant mice (+/−) and their littermate control (+/+), using the comparative Ct method (as described in method).
  2. *p ≤ 0.05, n = 4, (−) = down regulated gene.
