<h4>Objective</h4>We studied by microarray analysis whether symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid plaques from the same patient differ in gene expression and whether the same changes are present in an independent sample set.<h4>Methods and results</h4>Carotid plaques from four patients with bilateral high-grade stenosis, one being symptomatic and the other asymptomatic, were analyzed on Affymetrix U95Av2 arrays. 33 genes showed >1.5-fold change between symptomatic and asymptomatic plaques in an i ...[more]
