Correlation Network Analysis Reveals Relationships between MicroRNAs, Transcription Factor T-bet, and Deregulated Cytokine/Chemokine-Receptor Network in Pulmonary Sarcoidosis

Figure 3

Kohonen self-organizing map (SOM) for a whole gene expression data set in BAL cells obtained from patients with sarcoidosis. Clustering shows the ratio of occurrence (given as % of patients/neuron) of two classes (progression and regression) in individual neurons (green neurons for patients with progression, red neurons for patients with regression; neurons classifying both classes are visualized as interpolation between red and green colors). The bold numbers indicate % of sarcoidosis patients clustered into particular neuron.
