Longevity-Related Gene Transcriptomic Signature in Glioblastoma Multiforme

Figure 2

Expression profile of pluripotent genes in GBM patients compared to controls. (a) Values are presented as medians and quartiles of fold change relative to controls. The box defines upper and lower quartiles (25% and 75%, resp.) and the Whisker bars indicate upper and lower adjacent limits. TBP was used as an internal control. Noncancer tissues was set to have a relative expression value of 1.0. Mann–Whitney U test was used for comparison. value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. (b) Frequency of patients with up- and downregulated genes.
