Day-4 EBs of EphB4+/- and EphB4-/- were used for DNA microarray analysis. Affymetrix mouse U74Av2 chips (about 12 000 genes) were hybridized on a GeneChip system (Affymetrix) at the Center for Genomics Research of Harvard University. Scanned chip images were analyzed using the Microarray Suite Software version 5.0 (Affymetrix). A transcript was considered “change” when the fold change was at least 2. RNA samples for microarray were generated from 4 independent experiments.
