Additional file 6: of Transcriptional analysis of abdominal fat in chickens divergently selected on bodyweight at two ages reveals novel mechanisms controlling adiposity: validating visceral adipose tissue as a dynamic endocrine and metabolic organ

Top pathways and biological functions identified by IPA from time-course microarray analysis of abdominal fat in HG and LG cockerels (1-11 wk). A Microsoft Excel file containing eight worksheets [i.e., “Upstream Regulators, Oxidative Phosphorylation, LXR/RXR Activation, Fatty Acid Metabolism, Adipogenesis Pathway, Insulin Resistance, VEGF Signaling, and Protein Metabolism”]. Top canonical pathways and biological functions were identified by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) of 647 “Analysis Ready” (AR)-DE genes (FDR ≤ 0.05) from time-course (1-11 wk) microarray analysis.
