Figure 3
Comparison of qPCR and microarray miRNA measurements for 60 miRNAs in four tissue pairs. Scatter plots are shown for miRNA expression ratios in four different tissue pairs, as determined by qPCR (x axis) and microarrays (y axis), where each data point represents one miRNA. The qPCR values are the difference between the Ct values from the two tissues, and the microarray values are the difference between the log2(total gene signals) from the two tissues. The equations and R values on each plot are for the orthogonally-fitted line. Scatter plots for the remaining 32 tissue pairs are shown in Additional Files 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.
