Additional file 3 of Strengthening insights into host responses to mastitis infection in ruminants by combining heterogeneous microarray data sources

Additional file 3:Lists of all affected biological functions and corresponding affected genes. Complete lists of all affected biological functions (p < 0.05) and corresponding affected genes identified with IPA for the meta-analysis combinations (I) overall response, (II) early stage response, (III) late stage response, (IV) cattle-specific response, (V) early specific response and (VI) late specific response, as well as for the common affected genes between the 4 meta-analysis responses (I) to (IV) (Figure 3, n = 92). The biological functions include all the sub-groups "Diseases and disorders", "Physiological system development and function" and "Molecular and cellular functions" and are listed from the lowest to the highest p-value. The five most affected molecular and cellular functions, which are discussed in the text, are in bold. (XLS 201 KB)
