FIGURE 2.

Device implantation and stimulation influences the expression of thousands of genes in comparison to a sham procedure (craniotomy only). The volcano plot and table show differentially expressed genes between the craniotomy control and the two acute stimulation samples, with genes related to inflammatory cytokines and related signaling cascades upregulated by the device insertion and stimulation. LFCs are reported as the change in gene expression in the stimulated samples compared to the control samples. The table shows the top 25 most significant DE genes.
