Figure 3 RNA-sequencing of mesenteric arteries from bile duct ligation rats treated with melatonin.
A: The volcano plot of differential expressed genes (DEGs) between bile duct ligation (BDL) and BDL + melatonin (MLT) groups; B: The heatmap of DEGs between BDL and BDL + MLT groups; C: The protein-protein interaction network of DEGs with 10 hub genes; D: The top 10 terms enriched by Gene Ontology enrichment analysis based on DEGs; E: The top 10 pathways enriched by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis based on DEGs; F: The expression profile of VEGFs between BDL and BDL + MLT groups; G: The validation of the expression levels of VEGFs by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. aP < 0.05. bP < 0.01. BDL: Bile duct ligation; MLT: Melatonin.
