Selected downregulated biological processes in endothelial cells treated with TRE serum
| Functional module | Representative pathways (GO terms) | Direction | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Translation/ribosome biogenesis | Ribosome, rRNA processing, translational initiation | ↓ | Suppressed protein synthesis |
| RNA processing/spliceosome | mRNA splicing, spliceosome complex | ↓ | Reduced RNA maturation |
| Proteostasis | Proteasome, protein folding, chaperones | ↓ | Reduced protein turnover |
| Cell cycle/cytoskeleton | Spindle organization, microtubules, chromatid segregation | ↓ | Reduced proliferation/structural remodeling |
| Growth factor signaling | TGF-β signaling, SMAD pathways | ↓ | Suppressed growth signaling |
| Adhesion/structure | Focal adhesion, adherens junction | ↓ | Reduced structural programs |
