This apparently negative association between immune response and lipid metabolism is supported by the primary functions that were observed in IPA and GO when all DEG were considered (Additional Files 3, 4, 5 and 15).
Based on these findings, besides their three primary functions, that is, filtration, structural support, and phagocytosis, MCs have been postulated to be a key player for FN regulation in the kidney and is speculated as one of the major contributors to the sclerotic lesion in glomeruli [ 11].
While in essence all CAD software provides one primary function, that of task automation, choices are made between the various vendors' offerings based on many factors.

Another possibility could be that HOXC8 up-regulation is associated with tumour cell dissemination from the primary, a function that is dispensable at later, metastasised stages.
Interestingly, Hamiltonella probably replaced the primary endosymbiont for some functions that are still assumed by Portiera in other species of B. tabaci.
As identified by IPA, Cell-to-Cell Signaling and Interaction, and Cellular Movement were the primary molecular and cellular functions that are likely to be affected in shPTK7 cells.
They show that the proteins that are more or less equivalent with respect to their primary function, and that are connected through a neutral path, vary with respect to their ability to perform "other", promiscuous functions for which there has been no selection.
Although domestic slaves occasionally worked outside the household, for example, in haying or harvesting, their primary function was that of menials who served their owners in their homes or wherever else the owners might be, such as in military service.
In this report, the use of the β-score in the early posttransplant period allowed to quantify primary graft function that, when "optimal," was associated with prolonged graft survival and better metabolic control following islet transplantation (1).
