Flowchart for narrowing down the genes for which expression levels were altered upon Glutamate addition. 21,282 genes indicate the number of genes for which probes without gene names were deleted. 5714 genes indicate the number of genes after exclusion of genes with signal values of 5 or less in all samples. 60 genes indicate the number of genes whose expression levels increased more than two-fold from Control to Galactose and decreased more than two-fold from Galactose to Glutamate. 51 genes indicate the number of genes for which unknown functions or genes for which primer design was difficult were excluded. 41 genes are those for which the RT-qPCR results show that expression levels decreased by more than 10% from Galactose to Glutamate when the increase in expression from Control to Galactose was considered to be 100%, and the number of genes that matched the microarray analysis.
