Schematic strategy of pooling circRNA microarray profiles. Eight microarrays are depicted by 8 green circles. After eight microarray profiles were individually acquired, three microarray profiles detecting CD28(+)CD8(+)T cells from three age-dependent elderly subgroups were pooled as Q1,and three microarray profiles detecting CD28(-)CD8(+)T cells from three age-dependent elderly subgroups were pooled as Q2. Consequently, four cross-group comparisons were performed as: Comparison1 (C1:Q1 vs Q2 indicating CD28(+)CD8(+) vs CD28(-)CD8(+) T cells in the elderly); Comparison2 (C2: Q3 vs Q4 indicating CD28(+)CD8(+) vs CD28(-)CD8(+)T cells in the adult); Comparison 3 (C3:Q1 vs Q3 indicating CD28(+)CD8(+)T cells in the elderly vs in the adult); and Comparison4 (C4: Q2 vs Q4 indicating CD28(-)CD8(+)T cells in the elderly vs in the adult)
