Expressed genes in regenerating rat liver after partial hepatectomy

Figure 1 Gene expression differences at different time points after PH. The 133 elements were categorized into 21 temporal patterns following the induction of suppressed time points.

Figure 2 Hierarchical cluster analysis of 300 elements. A: Cluster of distribution trend. Three hundred elements differing by at least more than twofold intensity at one time point were identified; B: Cluster of hierarchical relativity. A hierarchical cluster of 11 time points showed that 12 and 16 h, 48 and 96 h as well as 72 and 144 h patterns were clustered together as separate groups in major branches.

Figure 3 Cluster analysis of differentially expressed genes identified by cDNA microarray-based gene expression profiling. These genes were classified into 12 clusters by GeneMaths.

Figure 4 Expression of different genes in LR. A: Seventy-four downregulated genes; B: thirty-seven upregulated genes whose fold changes were 2-5; C: nine upregulated genes whose fold changes were 5-10; D: three up-regulated genes whose fold changes were above 10; E: ten up- and downregulated genes.
