Figure 2

Network analysis of dynamic gene expression in OC spheroids based on the 1.5-fold common gene expression list obtained following treatment with all CT drugs used (cisplatin, topotecan and paclitaxel). The five top-scoring networks were merged and are displayed graphically as node (genes/gene product) and edges (the biological relationships between the nodes). Intensity of the node color indicates the degree of up- (red) or downregulation (green). Nodes are displayed using various shapes that represent the functional class of the gene product (square, cytokine, vertical oval, transmembrane receptor, rectangle, nuclear receptor, diamond, enzyme, rhomboid, transporter, hexagon, translation factor, horizontal oval, transcription factor, circle, other). Edges are displayed with various labels that describe the nature of relationship between the nodes: ---- binding only, → acts on. The length of an edge reflect the evidence supporting that node-to-node relationship, in that edges supported by article from literature are shorter. Dotted edges represent indirect interaction.
