Figure 2.
(A–C) Biomarkers (n = 37) that differed between the three Control groups, 1, 2, and 3 (blue), and their physiological function (brown, yellow, red, black, light blue, green, pink, and gray). (A) Three control subgroups could be identified by clustering of all biomarkers (n = 189). Significantly different biomarkers (n = 37) between the three control groups (1, 2, and 3) are presented. Higher intensity of red color indicates a higher expression of a given biomarker. (B) The comparison in which the biomarker differed in a comparison. Blue color indicates a significant difference of expression between control groups listed at the top of the column. Note that 23 biomarkers differed between Controls 1 and 2; 16 between Controls 1 and 3; and only 14 between Controls 2 and 3. (C) The function/functions of each biomarker as defined by www.humanproteinatlas.org (brown, yellow, red, black, light blue, green, pink, and gray).
