Global view of altered transcripts in obese adipose tissue. (A) Principle component analysis of microarray samples. (B) Overlapping of differentially expressed transcripts. (C) Chromosome distribution of altered transcripts. The heatmap of outer ring denotes fold changes of all alternatively spliced genes (ASGs); the histogram of middle ring denotes fold changes of differentially expressed coding genes (DEGs), and the links in the center denotes interactions between differential expressed long non-coding RNAs [differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELRs)] and their targets. The symbols of connected DELRs, DEGs, and annotated ASGs are respectively labeled in red, blue, and green color. Links between DELRs and these transcripts are painted by the same color as targets’ labels.
