Expression changes of cytoskeleton-associated target genes in healthy men after n-3 PUFA supplementation. Transcript levels of RHOA, CDC42, RAC1, PAK2, ROCK1, LIMK2, WASL, WASF2, BAIAP2, ARPC2, ARPC3, and CFL1 were determined by qRT-PCR in healthy middle-aged men before (t0) and after 12 weeks (t12) of 2.7 g/d n-3 PUFA supplementation. Each sample was used in triplicate. Triplicates were averaged and corrected by two reference genes (GAPDH and RPS2). Corrected expressions of all subjects were compared with the baseline gene expression and the relative expression changes are displayed. Differences between time points were tested by Wilcoxon test. Asterisks mark the following significance levels: *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.
