Data are derived from microarray analyses of mRNA levels between wild-type and Rb−/− fetal liver at E12.5. The average signal values for Rb-null and wild-type samples is given, as is the signal ratio for each gene and the P value to indicate the significance of the change across 9 different sample comparisons (3Rbx3Wt fetal livers). The full array is accessible using the NCBI GEO Series accession number GSE6787.

Phosphoglycerate kinase is commonly abbreviated as pgk1; Vascular endothelial growth factor, as Vegf; Heme oxygenase, as Hmox1; Fms-like tyrosine kinase 1, as flt 1; hexokinase II, as HK2; myeloperoxidase, as MPO; and colony stimulating factor 1 receptor, as c-Fms.
