Comparison of human cardiac gene expression profiles in paired samples of right atrium and left ventricle collected in vivo

Abstract excerpt

Studies of expressed genes in human heart provide insight into both physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms. This is of importance for extended understanding of cardiac function as well as development of new therapeutic drugs. Heart tissue for gene expression studies is generally hard to obtain, particularly from the ventricles. Since different parts of the heart have different functions, expression...
