For a list of molecules, see Table E5. The genes used in the network analysis were selected on the basis of a false positive discovery rate (FDR). Because the genes with a fold change greater than 2 and a P value not greater than 0.05 had an FDR not exceeding 0.061, therefore all genes with a fold change greater than 2 and a P value not greater than 0.05 were used in the network analysis (see the online supplement for detail).
