a

Identified biological functions and/or diseases that were overrepresented among molecules in network using right-tailed Fisher exact test

b

Identified pathways from Ingenuity Pathway Analysis library that were most significant to data set. Significance of association was measured in 2 ways: (1) as ratio of number of molecules from focus gene set that map to pathway to total number of molecules that map to canonical pathway; and (2) using Fisher exact test

c

Based on prior knowledge of expected effects between transcription factors and their target genes stored in Ingenuity Pathway Analysis library. Overlap P value measures whether there is statistically significant overlap between data set genes and genes regulated by transcription factor using Fisher exact test

d

Range of P values indicates that category listed in table contained several subcategories. P values provide range from least to most significant for all subcategories.
