Genes are organized in functional groups.

A complete listing of all genes on the array plates is shown in Supplementary Table 2 and mRNA abundance values for each gene in the UI tendons is shown in Supplementary Table 4.

‡‡3 replicate tissue pools were analyzed for UI and 28 d groups and duplicate pools for 3 d and 9 d groups (see Table 1 for details).

#Statistical analyses was performed for comparison of UI and 28 d groups, with p values(*) = 0.05, (**) = 0.01, (***) = 0.001, (****) = 0.0001.

Genes for which expression was unaffected relative UI samples are marked with (-).
