Reported is the number of functions, pathways and DEG enriched at the specified FDR cut-off. Legend: FDR = false discovery rate cut-off applied in the function/pathway analysis; DEG = differentially expressed genes, with “Overall” denoting the total number of DEG and “Eligible in IPA” the number of DEG eligible for function/pathway analysis in IPA.
