Little evidence of direct transcript-level interaction between DEX prophylaxis and HA exposure
(The second approach calculated the change in expression of each of the 27,070 identified sequences in the paired samples from the six control subjects who went from LA to HA, and the 6 DEX-p subjects who went from LA to HA. We plotted the average of these gene expression changes across the six control subjects and the six DEX-p subjects, and observed that the two curves were nearly superimposable, indicating that in aggregate the paired samples were not impacted by DEX prophylaxis (
