The differentially expressed genes (DEGs). (A) Volcano plots. X-axes indicate log2 (fold-change), and Y-axes indicate − log10 (adjusted-P value). Significantly (adjusted-P value < 0.1) downregulated and upregulated genes are marked in blue and red, respectively. DEGs between IgAN M0 cases and controls (left), IgAN M0 cases and controls (center), and IgAN M1 and IgAN M0 cases (right). (B) Venn-diagram showing the overlapping or specific DEGs in each target group.
