A box plot showing the expression of the six genes across the 10 brain tissues in Braineac. (A) Fold change between OCTX and WHMT = 5.8 (P =2.20 × 10−64) for TSPAN13; (B) fold change between WHMT and CRBL = 3 (P =2.30 × 10−68) for AHR; (C) fold change between TCTX and WHMT = 2 (P =8.80 × 10−44) for ANKMY2; (D) fold change between PUTM and MEDU = 2 (P =1.00 × 10−37) for BZW2; (E) fold change between TCTX and MEDU = 1.6 (P =3.50 × 10−22) for ISPD; (F) fold change between WHMT and HIPP = 1.1 (P =5.00 × 10−8) for AGR2. CRBL = cerebellar cortex; FCTX = frontal cortex; HIPP = hippocampus; MEDU = medulla; OCTX = occipital cortex; PUTM = putamen; SNIG = substantia nigra; TCTX = temporal cortex; THAL = thalamus; WHMT = intralobular white matter.
