Expression of CD44v6 gene in normal human peripheral blood

Figure 1 Primers for DC44v6, CD44s. A: Human CD44 gene and its encoded region (closed boxes: constitutive exons; open boxes: variant exons); B: primers for CD44v6; C: primers for CD44s.

Figure 2 Detection of CD44v6 mRNA in peripheral blood from healthy volunteers by RT-PCR. β-actin was used as an internal control. Lines A1-6 and B1-8: samples from blood; line P: positive control; line N: negative control; line M: molecular weight marker (100-bp DNA ladder).
