Each of the 1390 mRNAs are targets of one or more SSA/P-specific miRNAs as determined by HumanTargetScan. P-values represent the hypergeometric test of enrichment based on the number of genes differentially expressed in the pathway compared to the total number of genes in the pathway. z score represents whether the pathway is activated (>2.0) or inhibited (<−2.0) based on the direction of fold change for each differentially expressed gene in that pathway.
