Figure Lengend Snippet: Proteomics analysis of BMM. (A) Rank plot displaying protein expression differences between DMD and control mice. Black dots represent significantly expressed proteins, while grey dots represent not-significantly expressed proteins. (B) Volcano plot depicting MS results, with proteins coloured in red having a Log2 DMD/Control ratio of > 1.5 and -log10(P) of >10, and proteins coloured in blue having a Log2 DMD/Control ratio of < −1.5 and -log10(P) of >10. (C) Principal component analysis using the reporter ion log 2 ratios of all analysed proteins showing mdx βgeo BMM having a distinct proteomic profile and higher heterogeneity compared to C57BL/6 BMMs. (D) MetaCore process network analysis showing that process networks related to cell adhesion, phagocytosis, cell cycle and cytoskeleton were over-represented in mdx βgeo BMM.
Article Snippet: Protein ratios were transformed to log 2 -ratios and significant changes were determined by the permutation test followed by LIMMA for bioinformatics analysis with MetaCore software (GeneGo).
