Fig. 7: Bulk RNAseq analysis of tumor tissues.

a–c Principal component (PC) analysis (a), MA plot (b), and volcano plot (c) showing the differential gene expression in ME tissues of control and Rax-CreERT2::BrafV600E mutant mice at 2 months post tamoxifen injection. d A heatmap showing the differential gene expression of control and papillary craniopharyngioma-like tumor tissues. A set of upregulated and downregulated transcription factors, tanycyte markers, and differentiation markers in the mouse papillary craniopharyngioma are highlighted in the table. e, f Gene ontology network analysis of upregulated (e) and downregulated (f) genes in the tumor tissues. The major clusters with different gene ontology are labeled with different colors.
