Differentially expressed genes were determined using the Student’s t-test with false discovery rate multiple testing correction (FDR). The median-based fold changes (MBFC) were calculated to evaluate the ratio of expression changes between the studied groups. A gene with MBFC > 2 or MBFC < 0.5 and FDR < 0.2 (adequate to Student’s t-test p value < 0.05) was considered significantly differentially expressed.
