The results were validated on the 20 subjects used for microarray analysis and on 62 additional individuals by real-time PCR."
"The first analysis, where patient groups were compared with healthy subjects, revealed 15 out of 182 genes that differed in hypertensive, obese or obesity-related hypertensive individuals....
