Figure 2: Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) results.

(a) Volcanic plot of DEGs. Red dot represents significantly up-regulated DEGs (n = 491), green dot represents significantly down-regulated genes, and blue dots represents non-differentially expressed genes. (b) Heatmap of the top 20 DEGs (n = 373) based on absolute fold changes. (c) Number of targeted DEGs by miRNAs, lncRNAs and virus genes. Red bar represents 204 DEGs targeted by 7 differentially expressed miRNAs, green bar represents 390 DEGs targeted by 17 differentially expressed lncRNAs, and blue bar represents 380 DEGs correlated with the 8 viral gene fragments. (d) Venn diagram showing the overlap of the three targeted DEGs groups from (c). Red circle is the miRNA group, green circle is the lncRNA group, and blue circle is the virus group.
