Expression pattern of genes involved in Schwann cell biology. Gene expression profile analysis of upregulated and downregulated mRNA transcripts from signaling pathways related to peripheral neuropathy, Schwann cell plasticity and regeneration support. Analysis were performed in human nerve biopsies from leprosy (A, black bars) and non-leprosy individuals (A, horizontal line) and in human Schwann cells (B-D) infected with dead M. leprae (white bars) and viable M. leprae (black bars); results are presented as mean ± SD from three to eight normalized independent biological replicates; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001.
