Specific mRNAs identified in denervated muscle atrophy. DEGs in denervated muscle atrophy retrieved by our meta-analysis (blue circle) were further compared with DEGs in disuse muscle atrophy caused by 7-day hindlimb casting (purple circle), 14-day hindlimb casting (red circle) and hindlimb unloading (green circle). (a) Venn for up-regulated genes. (b) Venn for down-regulated genes. Den denervation, cast 7 7-day hindlimb casting, cast 14 14-day hindlimb casting.
