Fig. 6From: The role of microRNAs in understanding sex-based differences in Alzheimer’s diseaseDifferential miRNA expression profiles in meta-analyses of brain samples from female and male AD and control patients. A Volcano plot showing miRNAs underexpressed (blue dots, five miRNAs) and overexpressed (orange dot, one miRNA) in female AD patients. The horizontal dashed gray line indicates − log10FDR (0.05). B Volcano plot showing miRNAs underexpressed (blue dots, two miRNAs) and overexpressed (orange dot, two miRNAs) in male AD patients. The horizontal dashed gray line indicates − log10FDR (0.05). C Plot comparing the expression profiles of miRNAs exclusively altered in female AD patients in both sexes. D Plot comparing the expression profiles of miRNAs exclusively altered in male AD patients in both sexesBack to article page
