Figure 4

Log fold change (natural log) for the VILI experiment (left) and high-fat diet experiment (right). The left plot shows the log fold changes for mice versus rat averaged over the two replicates for each species. The right plot shows the log fold changes for fat versus muscle averaged over the three and four replicates for each species. The circles correspond to the genes highlighted by our analysis and by the method of Hwang et al.; they are characterized by a large log fold change for both the species. The correlation of the two fold changes for this group is 0.4 (VILI experiment) and 0.8 (high-fat diet experiment). The crosses correspond to the genes highlighted only by Hwang et al.'s analysis; they are characterized by a large log fold change for one species and a small fold change for the other one. The correlation of the two fold changes for this group is 0.06 (VILI experiment) and 0.36 (high-fat diet experiment).
