Fig. 2From: Transcriptomic profiling of adipose tissue inflammation, remodeling, and lipid metabolism in periparturient dairy cows (Bos taurus)The transcriptomic profile of subcutaneous adipose tissue is altered after parturition and the onset of lactation. Adipose tissue samples were collected from Holstein cows (n = 12) at 11 ± 3.6 d before calving date (PreP) and at 6 ± 1d (PP1) and 13 ± 1.4d (PP2) after parturition. a 2D and b 3D Principal components analysis (PCA) of adipose tissue transcriptomics data at PreP, PreP vs. PP1, and PreP vs. PP2. c Volcano plots of differentially expressed genes at PP1 and PP2 when compared to PreP samples. d Enrichment of differentially expressed genes (DEG) analyzed based on canonical pathways categories using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). The x-axis indicates the –log10(p-value) and red line indicates a threshold of p = 0.05 [−log10(0.05) =1.3]Back to article page
