Short-term prometryn treatment altered oxylipin profiles in murine liver. (a) Sparse partial least squares-discriminant analysis (sPLS-DA) score plots of male mice livers treated with vehicle control and prometryn. (b) Volcano plot showing the significantly changed oxylipins profiles in mice liver after prometryn treatment. (c) Heat map showing AA, EPA, DHA, LA, and ALA metabolites profile shifted in vehicle control and prometryn treated groups in male mice liver. The relative intensities of variables in control and prometryn treated livers were shown by color bars. The color scale from − 3 to 3 represents the z-score. A positive z-score (increase in brown color intensity) reflects increased metabolite concentration and a negative z-score (increase in blue color intensity) reflects decreased concentration. Purple and green colored boxes on top of the heatmap represent the two groups (purple = control group and green = prometryn group), with their position showing how they cluster together, as determined by hierarchical clustering using Ward's algorithm.
