Alteration of the gene expression profile after HI. Gene expression profile in the ipsilateral vs contralateral hemisphere of rats induced by hypoxia-ischemia after 24 h (a), 72 h (b), and 4 weeks in males (c) and females (d). Results are represented as log2-fold change in a heat map. Red color denotes upregulated genes and green color downregulated genes; black represents unchanged gene expression and the gray color slightly upregulated gene. Statistical analysis was performed using Student’s t test of the replicate 2−∆Ct values for each gene in the control group and treatment group. e Complete list of investigated genes by RT2 Profiler™ PCR Array
