Values given in bold denote statistically significant results (P < 0.05).

SZ schizophrenia, MD major depression, FC fold change, TCA tricarboxylic acid cycle.

aA negative log2(FC) indicated significantly lower expression in schizophrenia subjects compared to major depressive subjects; a positive log2(FC) indicated significantly higher expression in schizophrenia subjects compared to major depressive subjects.

bThese data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post hoc test between two groups of each cohort.
