b

P values considered to be statistically significant for lifted and adherent cells were <0.05 and <0.01, respectively, due to differences in the arrays used.

c

These pathways were also significantly different (P < 0.01) in lifted human microvascular endothelial cells (HMECs) infected with p66+ B. burgdorferi versus Δp66 B. burgdorferi.
