Figure 2

Presentation of microarray data from mock-and B. pertussis- inoculated mice. Analysis was performed on 2,559 genes whose expression was found to be significantly up- or down-regulated at an FDR < 0.05. Relatively increased gene-expression is presented in red while relatively decreased gene-expression is presented in green. The color scale shows log(2) ratios of gene-expression levels compared to the global average. ANOVA analysis identified 206 genes that were differentially expressed between the two mouse strains and 2,353 genes that were differentially expressed after infection. Hierarchical clustering of the 2,559 regulated genes results in four distinct groups, higher in C3H (A), higher in HcB-28 (B), down-regulated after infection in both strains (C) and up-regulated after infection in both strains (D).
