Figure 4. Proteomic analyses identify global differences in protein abundance and biological processes in paired samples of ruptured and stable human carotid artery plaque segments.

Figure 4.

(A) Correspondence analysis was applied to the 1,161 identified proteins. Individual plaques from the 2 areas are represented by colored spheres. (B) Heatmap of two-dimensional hierarchical cluster analysis for the 489 proteins that are differentially abundant (FDR <0.05) between ruptured and stable plaque segments. A complete list of these proteins is in Online Data Set XII (C) Functional enrichment analysis of the differentially abundant proteins reveals over-represented biological processes. A complete list is in Online Data Sets XIII and XIV.
