The top ten most highly connected genes within the blue module and the significance (p-values) of their expression changes due to seizures in the lesioned and non-lesioned hemispheres. Genes within the table are ranked based on their kME within the blue module. For each gene, the last column shows the effect of seizures, which is the comparison between the animals with seizures and the animals without seizures. This comparison was performed separately in the lesioned and non-lesioned hippocampi, and the results of both analyses are shown in the table. All of these genes show similar trends towards differential expression in both the lesioned and non-lesioned hippocampi, demonstrating that their expression changes are likely caused by presence of seizures and are unrelated to the lesion.
