Abstract

<p>(A) Expression of various chemokines are compared between normal ECFCs (n = 4) and MMD ECFCs (n = 7). (B) KEGG pathway enrichment analysis; upregulated genes are involved in chemokine signaling pathway. (C) Four most-up-regulated chemokines in MMD ECFCs are selected for further analysis. (D) Confirmation of mRNA expression of select gene in ECFCs by RTq-PCR (n = 4 for each group). Significantly higher levels of CLCL6, IL8, and CCL5 mRNA are expressed in MMD-ECFCs (CXCL6, p = 0.038; IL8, p = 0.021; CCL2 p = 0.239; CCL5, p = 0.008).</p
