Signal transduction pathway associations, which were enriched after 4 h (“induction of differentiation”/immediate response), and 12 h (very early differentiation) of treatment, and 24 h (early differentiation) treatment, are depicted. The effects of differentiation without or with TNF-α or with IGF1 compared with TNF-α treatment are shown. Pathway enrichment was based on cocitation with a p value cutoff of <0.01. Genes within significantly enriched pathways are listed. In addition, it is indicated in which SOTA cluster a pathway is enriched. Pathways highlighted in bold are retrieved in enrichment analyses of genes identified by principal component analysis which are shown in Table 1.
