Figure 3From: Differential expression of alpha 2 macroglobulin in response to dietylstilbestrol and in ovarian carcinomas in chickensEffect of DES on tissue specific expression of chicken A2M based on RT-PCR and qPCR analyses. Both RT-PCR [A and B] and q-PCR [C and D] analyses were performed using cDNA templates from DES-treated and control chicken oviducts (mean ± SEM; P < 0.001) to determine that DES induced about a 22-fold increase in oviductal A2M mRNA as compared to control chicks.Back to article page
