Analysis of the gene lists published by Tang for condition specificity.

A) Direct comparison of the up and downregulated genes for the ischemic stroke and the Sham groups and creation of a Venn diagram. B) Heat map of the upregulated specific ischemic stroke genes. C) Heat map of the downregulated specific ischemic stroke genes. Genes identified by the analysis of Tang’s results and their expression in our time course data. Results presented as average values across the 8 animals for a given time point and colour key is similar to the one used in Fig 4.
