  1. For clarity, the standard deviations are not shown, but the variability within each group did not exceed 0.25 cycles of PCR amplification.
  2. -- = difference was > 0.5 but < 2.0; ADAMTS = A disintegrin-like and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif; VCAM = vascular cell adhesion molecule.
