Differential transcript regulation through the day. The total number (no.) of differentially regulated transcripts (both significant up- and down-regulation of detected probes) is shown for control groups, i.e., after 24 h following i.v. administration of physiological saline at 9:00, 12:00, and 15:00. Statistical comparisons were made individually for pair-wise comparison between time points and over all three time points. Ovals indicate the number of differentially regulated transcripts between two time points; circles indicate the number of differentially regulated transcripts shared between all time points. Please note that the diagram is not a classical Venn diagram; for further description, please refer to Fig. 2
