| Research Abstract |
We used a method for analyzing the qualitative and quantitative aspects of gene expression (MAGE) to compare expressed genes between microglia and macrophage. By sequencing 10,000 clones in each, we have found several genes that were significantly different between the two cell populations. Genes expressed highly in microglia included TSC36 (TGFβ-inducible gene), while genes expressed highly in macrophage included apolipoprotein E and cathepsin L.
