Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to compare relative expression of all transcripts in for cell type between two conditions/groups. “+” indicates up-regulation and “−” indicates down-regulation of relative expression of transcript. *Significance level at 0.033; **significance level at 0.002; ***significance level < 0.001; ns, not significant.
