  1. Enrichment = (n/t)/(N/T), where n = cell-type distinguishing probes in RT-elevated gene set, N = total cell-type distinguishing probes, t = total RT-elevated probes = 1676, and T = total Agilent probes on array platforms from which neutrophil, endothelial or lung epithelial genes were identified (T = 19,515) or from which all other cell-type distinguishing genes were identified (T = 29,806). Observed proportions of cell-type distinguishing genes in the RT-elevated gene set were compared to the proportions expected by chance using the χ2 statistic
