To identify alterations of gene expression profile following PON3 downregulation, microarray experiments and analyses were performed. The cDNA microarrays were constructed as previously described [37]. The threshold used to screen differentially expressed genes is fold change ≥ 1.5 and p-value ≤ 0.05. GO (http://geneontology.org/) and KEGG pathway (http://www.genome.jp/kegg/pathway.html) analyses were performed using the standard enrichment computation method and ranked by p-values [38].
