Hierarchical clustering analyses; a Clustering of samples using the whole microarray dataset; b Clustering of samples based on a subset of pIC-responsive transcripts involved in Cytokine-mediated pathway [i.e. associated with GO terms “cellular response to cytokine stimulus” (GO:0071345) and/or “response to cytokine” (GO:0034097)]; the transcript names are derived from the significant BLASTx hits (E-value <1e-05) as implemented by Blast2GO. Coloured blocks at the top of the figures indicate the dietary and stimulation groups: light blue, PBS FO7; dark blue, pIC FO7; light yellow, PBS FO5; dark yellow, pIC FO5
