  1. Table columns (left to right): Cell phenotype; Upstream regulator genes; Gene’s fold change determined in microarray analysis; Molecule type; Predicted activation state of upstream regulator; Z-score: if z-score ≥ 2 then upstream regulator is activated, and if z-score ≤ −2 then is inhibited; p-value, calculated by Fisher’s Exact Test, indicates the statistical significance of genes in the data set that are downstream of de upstream regulator. Normal letter: up-regulated genes; bold: down-regulated genes in microarrays.
