Although the association of the Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA levels with other factors (age, sex and tumor location) was also examined, no statistically significant correlation could be found (data not shown).
After co-injection of these fusion constructs into Nicotiana benthamiana leaf cells no YFP fluorescence could be found (data not shown).
Such properties could be enrichment of other amino acids (e.g., the region is enriched in valine and threonine residues) or short motifs, which can also be found (data not shown).
Some differences in the disease development or onset in NOD littermates may be associated with expression levels of cathepsin L. By contrast, enhanced expression of granzyme B in diabetic NOD mice compared with that in non-diabetic NOD mice could not be found (data not shown).
However, the plasma levels of the top findings (such as BDNF, RANTES, TIMP-1, EGF) was still altered in non-smokers, and an obvious correlation between the number of cigarettes per day with the marker values in the smoker subset could not be found (data not shown).
No significant differences between treatments and controls could be found (data not shown).
