Key finding
Analysis methods confirming finding
Lipid metabolism
(i) PEA: lipid metabolism and lipid pathways upregulated (ii) MPA: downregulation of CPT1 and palmitate associated metabolic reactions
Response to stress
(i) PEA: response to wounding pathway upregulated (ii) MPA: downregulation of the proline metabolic pathway and upregulation of asparagine metabolism
Low cell density
(i) PEA: adherens junction, MYC, and E2F pathways downregulated (ii) MPA: aspartate metabolic pathway and the mitochondrial 1-carbon metabolic pathway downregulated (iii) GSEA: MYC and E2F pathways downregulated
Long doubling time
(i) PEA: cell division and mitotic cell cycle phase transition pathways downregulated (ii) MA: folate metabolic pathway downregulated (iii) GSEA: G2/M checkpoint downregulated (iv) NTA: FYN-related PPI networks downregulated
Attempt to balance long doubling time
(i) MPA: glycine, threonine, and serine pathways upregulated (ii) NTA: RHOU- and ESR1-related PPI networks upregulated
Upregulation of cell adhesion
(i) PEA: actin filament-based process, regulation of cell adhesion, apical part of cell, plasma membrane-bounded cell projection morphogenesis, and extracellular matrix pathways upregulated (ii) NTA: upregulation of the cell adhesion PPI network(CDH18)
