Changes in the mRNA expression profiles of the LADA and nondiseased group. (a) The scatter plot reveals that a significant difference existed in the distribution of mRNAs between the LADA group and the nondiseased group. (b) The heat map depicts the hierarchical clustering of altered mRNAs in the LADA group compared to the nondiseased group. Red represents upregulation, while green represents downregulation. (c) The volcanic map displays the upregulated and downregulated mRNAs in the LADA group compared to the nondiseased group. LADA—latent autoimmune diabetes in adults; mRNAs—messenger RNAs.
