Figure 2: Function classification of the differentially expressed proteins between ETEC-induced diarrheal piglets and resistant piglets.

From: Proteome analysis for the global proteins in the jejunum tissues of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli -infected piglets

Figure 2

ETEC-induced diarrhea in piglets were established by orally inoculation of ETEC W25K for five consecutive days at dosage of 1010 CFUs per day. Resistant piglets indicate the piglets that were challenged with ETEC but not suffered from diarrhea. The differentially expressed proteins between 6 diarrheal piglets after ETEC infection and 6 resistant piglets after ETEC infection were characterized by iTRAQ-based proteomics, and then the functional annotations of 450 differentially expressed proteins were conducted using the gene ontology (GO) annotation software. iTRAQ: isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation; ETEC: Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli.
