Effect of Herb-Partitioned Moxibustion on Autophagy and Immune-Associated Gene Expression Profiles in a Rat Model of Crohn’s Disease

Figure 5

The scatter plot of pathway enrichments of differential genes between groups. (a) M group versus N group. (b) M group versus MM group. (c) M group versus NM group. (d) M group versus Med group. (e) M group versus NS group. (f) MM group versus Med group. The enrichment factor refers to the ratio between the number of differentially expressed genes in the pathway item and the total number of annotated genes in the same pathway item. When the enrichment factor was larger, the enrichment level was higher. The Q value was the normalized P value after multiple hypothesis testing, and the range of values was 0 to 1. When the value was close to 0, the enrichment was more significant. The figure only shows the pathway items with the top 20 enrichment levels. N: normal group; M: CD model group; MM: CD model with herb-partitioned moxibustion group; NM: normal with herb-partitioned moxibustion group; Med: CD model with mesalazine group; NS: CD model with normal saline group.
