Popis: Methods We performed transcriptional profiling analyses on the Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) obtained before (Pre RR) and after (Post RR) 8 weeks of intervention from a pilot group of 4 hypertensives. Transcriptional profiling used Affymetrix HT HG-U133+ PM arrays, containing >47,000 transcripts corresponding to 38,500 genes. The arrays were normalized using the robust multi-chip analysis (RMA) algorithm. After normalization and preprocessing, differentially expressed genes were identified using the random variance model based t-test. To understand the underlying biological mechanisms associated with RR regulated genes, we performed Gene ontology (GO), pathways and geneset enrichment analysis (GSEA).
