Identification of Pulpitis-Related Potential Biomarkers Using Bioinformatics Approach

Figure 2

Differential expression analysis and functional enrichment analysis. (a) Analysis on the differences of mRNA expression profiles between pulpitis and normal pulp tissue samples (red dots indicate markedly upregulated genes while green dots indicate dramatically downregulated genes). (b) Bar chart of functional enrichment analysis on DEGs (terms are ranked according to value). (c). Functional enrichment analysis network was displayed according to terms, with different colors representing different terms. Nodes with the same color belong to the same term. A thicker line means higher similarity between nodes, and a bigger node indicates more genes in node. (d) Functional enrichment network was exhibited according to value, with darker color indicating smaller value.
