Enteric Bacterial Metabolites Propionic and Butyric Acid Modulate Gene Expression, Including CREB-Dependent Catecholaminergic Neurotransmission, in PC12 Cells - Possible Relevance to Autism Spectrum Disorders (original) (raw)
Figure 3
Differential gene expression profiles evoked by SCFA in PC12 cells.
Total RNA was isolated from PC12 cells following 48 hrs exposures to BA (6 mM), PPA (10 mM) or vehicle and subjected to microarray analysis. Genes that changed two-fold or greater in SCFA-treated groups (*p<0.05) compared to the control (vehicle treated PC12 cells) group were imported into MetaCore GeneGo for comparison analyses. Differentially expressed unique (1599 for BA and 355 for PPA experimental group) and common for both groups genes (1010) were identified. Fisher's exact test p-value was <2.2e-16.
