  1. Gene Name & Gene Symbol: gene identity of best BLAST match homologue to cDNA or plasmid; Total probe sets: Number of probe sets on the microarray representing the gene based on best BLAST match results; Median Fold Difference (N/A): Relative median Neonate/Adult fold change (bold represents fold difference > 2); Probe sets with p < 0.01 or 0.05: number of probe sets for each gene meeting these criteria by one-sample t-test.
