  1. LT, lateral tibial; MT, medial tibial; NA, not analyzed; OA, osteoarthritis. aNumber of genes associated with the particular ingenuity pathway and differentially expressed in MT versus LT regions of OA samples by microarray analysis; P value calculated by Fisher’s exact test. bAdjusted P value for microarray corrected for multiple testing by the Benjamini–Hochberg method. *P <0.001 and **P <0.05 for quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR); P <0.05 was considered significant comparing OA MT versus OA LT. P values determined by two-tailed unpaired Student’s t test.
