Figure.3. The number of differentially expressed genes (A) and proteins (B) among four experimental pairs. Note: The red bars represent the number of DEGs and DEPs among four experimental pairs. The purple bar represents the number of shared or specific DEGs and DEPs of the four experimental groups.
The opsin - (LWS I , LWS II , SWS I , SWS II ,ARR I , ARR II , TRPC , HISC , SLC ,KCNKN , RRH , and CYAB ) and microvilli - related DEGs (MYO III and MYO XV ) were mostly differentially expressed when exposed to NL and LCPL, while LPL scenario showed the lowest gene expression (Figure.4). Although 259 DEGs were found in the RCPL (Figure.3), they did not annotate to vision-related functional genes. It is worth noting that we found significant differences in the expression levels of LWS I , LWS III , SWS I , SWS II , MYO III , ARR I ,ARR II , and TRPC in the comparison between LCPL and DL (Figure.4).
