Figure 2

Representative graph of genes that were upregulated (Delta > 1.8 and P < 0.01) in arthritic joints from streptococcal cell wall (SCW)-induced arthritis model on day -13.8 (4 hours after systemic challenge), day -13 and day 3. The graphs represent the fold increase in gene expression (Delta) and the name of the genes associated with the following ontologies: apoptosis (A; red bars), regulation of cell cycle and cell proliferation (B; blue bars), transport (C; green bars) and regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent (D; yellow bars).
