Figure 1.  Overview of significant probes in microarray
analysis. An overview is shown of the probes presenting
significant sex-biased signals in five tissues. A: Tissues
analysed using Illumina 6v1.1 platform (striatum and neocortex).
B: Tissues analysed using Affymetrix M430v2.0 platform
(hippocampus, eye and lung). Columns designate samples (F:
females, M: males) and rows designate probes. Yellow colour
denotes up-regulation and blue colour denotes down-regulation of
a gene in a sample, as compared to the overall mean expression
of the particular gene within a tissue in the sex-balanced data
sets.  Reinius et al. BMC Genomics 2010 11:614
