Weighted Gene Co ‐Expression Network Analysis Identifies Gender Specific Modules and Hub Genes Related to Metabolism and Inflammation in Response to an Acute Lipid Challenge

Conclusion: The OLTT induced some gender specific correlations of gene co‐expression network modules. In females, biological processes relating to energy metabolism and inflammation pathways were evident. This suggests a gender specific link between inflammation and energy metabolism in response to lipids. In contrast, G‐protein coupled receptor protein signalling pathway was common to both genders.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved
