Comparison of Host Gene Expression Profiles in Spleen Tissues of Genetically Susceptible and Resistant Mice during ECTV Infection

Table 1

Total number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs).

Mouse strain	BALB/c		C57BL/6
After infection	3 dpi	10 dpi	3 dpi	10 dpi
Number of upregulated genes	470	1453	123	540
Number of downregulated genes	273	731	238	1079
Total number	743	2184	361	1619

Microarray data of infected groups were normalized with uninfected group of each mouse strain. The DEGs were filtered using the criterion of cutoff limitation as a fold change ≥ 2 or ≤0.5.
