Maternal influences on the transmission of leukocyte gene expression profiles in population samples from Brisbane, Australia.

Two gene expression profiling studies designed to identify maternal influences on development of the neonate immune system and to address the population structure of the leukocyte transcriptome were carried out in Brisbane, Australia. In the first study, a comparison of 19 leukocyte samples obtained...
