  1. The impact on DiI-LDL uptake upon candidate gene knockdown was analyzed with 3 independent siRNAs/gene. SiRNAs meeting significance criteria (z-score/Deviation >|1|) are displayed in bold as mean medians of deviations (Md). Genes with ≥2 significant siRNAs validated in replication screen are highlighted by**. Negative values indicate reduction in DiI-LDL uptake relative to control-siRNA transfected cells. C, control individuals; P, coronary-artery disease patients; column Md(C + P) indicates means across patients and control individuals in this study. n.a., not analyzed.
