Table 2. Overlap between tissue-specific signaling hubs of liver, bone marrow and kidney and genes associated with their tissue-specific anomaly phenotypes. Each row indicates a set of tissue-specific signaling hubs and each column indicates a set of tissue-specific phenotypic genes that were compared with tissue-specific signaling hubs. Statistical significances of overlaps were calculated by hypergeometric tests. Bolded was the most significant among overlaps of tissue-specific signaling hubs to genes associated with tissue-specific phenotypes of liver, bone marrow and kidney.
Tissue-specific signaling hubs | Overlap to liver phenotype genes (493 genes): number (P-value) | Overlap to bone marrow phenotype genes (289 genes): number (P-value) | Overlap to kidney phenotype genes (517 genes): number (P-value) |
---|---|---|---|
Liver-specific signaling hubs (98 genes) | 8 (0.011)* | 3 (0.26) | 6 (0.099) |
Bone marrow-specific signaling hubs (198 genes) | 8 (0.27) | 10 (0.0034)** | 13 (0.013)* |
Kidney-specific signaling hubs (166 genes) | 9 (0.074) | 5 (0.18) | 12 (0.0081)** |
