Li, Jifeng; Zhao, Hui; Luo, Pengbo; Gu, Yudong: Functional cooperation of of IL-1β and RGS4 in the brachial plexus avulsion mediated brain reorganization
Additional file 1: Functional classification of the annotated genes that show differentiated expressions in the motor cortex following brachial plexus axotomy. Intensity ratio of cy3 to cy5 was presented for one gene, that was more than 2.0 or less than 0.5 was considered to show prominent up- or down-regulated expression. Additional file 2: Functional classification of the annotated genes that show differentiated expressions in the brain stem following brachial plexus axotomy. Intensity ratio of cy3 to cy5 was presented for one gene, that was more than 2.0 or less than 0.5 was considered to show prominent up- or down-regulated expression. Additional file 3: Functional classification of the annotated genes that show differentiated expressions in the spinal cord following brachial plexus axotomy. Intensity ratio of cy3 to cy5 was presented for one gene, that was more than 2.0 or less than 0.5 was considered to show prominent up- or down-regulated expression.
