From: Transcriptomic sex differences in sensory neuronal populations of mice
Female-selective DEG functional clusters in DRG and TG sensory neurons. Inflammatory DEGs in female TG (A) and DRG (B) sensory neurons. Genes belonging to the complement family are marked as Comp; chemokines and their receptors are Chem; the integrins are Itg; and the tumor necrosis factor super family genes are TNFSF. Yellow boxes on the panel A indicate DEGs in both female TG and DRG sensory neurons. (C) Channel genes predominantly expressing in female TG sensory neurons. Structural protein genes expressing higher in female TG (B) than in DRG (C) sensory neurons. Structural protein DEGs belonging to extracellular matrix are marked as Extra matrix; synaptic machinery is Synp; cell adhesion is Cell-adh; and cytoskeleton are Cytosk. Yellow boxes on the panel (D) indicate DEGs identified in both male TG and DRG sensory neurons.
