Number of low TO genes with high connectivity in regional coexpression network = number of low TO genes with higher connectivity in one brain region + number of low TO genes with equal connectivity in both brain regions. There are 1704 proteins in ADnet. In EC HIP, 204 low TO genes ⋂‍ ADnet = 15 proteins. In EC MTG, 140 low TO genes ⋂‍ ADnet = 21 proteins. In EC PCC, 242 low TO genes ⋂‍ ADnet = 23 proteins. In HIP MTG, 125 low TO genes ⋂‍ ADnet = 12 proteins. In HIP PCC, 312 low TO genes ⋂‍ ADnet = 27 proteins. In PCC MTG, 158 low TO genes ⋂‍ ADnet = 16 proteins. Disease annotation cluster analysis was conducted on pairs of exclusive low TO modules (pairs of low TO modules excluding common proteins between module pairs). MTG seems to be least associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). When comparing EC and HIP, EC is highly associated with CVD. When comparing EC and PCC, PCC is highly associated with CVD. When comparing HIP and PCC, PCC is highly associated with CVD.
