Fig. 3. Differential expression analysis and enriched gene ontology between LP and EP.
a Volcano plot of DEGs between LP and EP. ECM-related genes such as thrombospondin, periostin, and collagens are shown on plot. Genes with adjusted P-value < 0.1 were colored by orange (log-fold change > 1) or blue (log-fold change < –1), whereas ≥ 0.1 were colored as gray. b Bar plot of gene ontology terms enriched with DE genes of LP (log-fold change > 0). c Venn diagram of highly variable gene sets between EP and LP. Highly variable genes between two populations were selected. Genes with raw counts > 3 were kept as set in the diagram.
