aCommercially available, normalized cDNA (MTC panels, BD Biosciences, Palo Alto CA) derived from 13 non-gametogenic tissues (colon, leukocyte, prostate, spleen, thymus, brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, skeletal muscle, pancreas and small intestine), as well as testis, ovary and placenta.
b35 cycles of PCR amplification were performed using primer sequences and annealing temperatures described in primary publications.
cDifferentially Expressed CT Transcripts were detected in 3-6 of the 13 non-gametogenic tissues analyzed.
