Comparison of transcriptomic profiles between the VUL and RES neurons based on biological functions associated with the differentially expressed genes identified in each neuronal group. The threshold line corresponds to the -log value for P = 0.05. Values of significance that is higher than threshold indicate greater numbers of genes, from either VUL or RES neurons, associated with the corresponding biological function. For example, although expression of genes related to the biological function of "Gene Expression" reached a value of significance above-threshold for both VUL and RES neurons, there were many more genes expressed in VUL neurons (54 in total) than the RES neurons (2), thus a higher -log P value for VUL than RES.
