  1. Negative activation z-scores reflect the predicted suppression of a pathway or an upstream regulator (significant when < ~− 2)
  2. P value reflects the overlap between the genes in the data set that are significantly affected by treatment (> 10% change, p < 0.05) and the genes that are in the pathway (canonical) or regulated by the upstream regulator
  3. Gene symbols are provided for the protein contributors that populate the identified pathways or upstream regulators
  4. Italicized pathways and regulators are also found in the HUVEC NanoString IPA analysis (Table 4)
