a, Modelled in vivo \({{p}}_{{{\rm{O}}}_{2}}\) mapped onto tissue sections. b-d, Tissue mapping of aggregated gene expression scores for genes associated with glycolysis, pentose phosphate pathway, and glutathione metabolism shows that glycolysis is not linked to redox metabolism (n = 4). e-h, This conclusion was supported by uniform expression patterns of SOD1, SOD2, CAT, and TXN. Expression levels of individual genes represent unitless variance-stabilized expression values, adjusted for sequencing depth across spots. Pathway scores are unitless enrichment scores calculated from the average expression of all genes in a pathway relative to a set of randomly selected control genes.
