“…The genes were chosen for well-studied expression changes ( Arc, Bdnf4, Egr1, Fos, Homer1 ), genes our lab has previously studied [ Fosl2 (Hawk et al, 2012), Gadd45 family (Leach et al, 2012)], or from microarray data (Btg2, Cpeb3, Histh2hab, Sik1, Sox18, Tob1, Tob2 (Peixoto et al, 2013)). cDNA samples underwent specific target amplification and were run on a 96.96 Fluidigm Biomark HD plate in triplicate (96 genes, 32 samples).…”
