Cell deconvolution-based integrated time-series network of whole blood transcriptome reveals systemic antiviral activities and cell-specific immunological changes against PRRSV inf... by Byeonghwi Lim, Chiwoong Lim, Min-Jae Jang, Young-Jun Seo, Do-Young Kim, Christopher K. Tuggle, Kyu-Sang Lim, Jun-Mo Kim

“…In this study, we collected viremia data, antibody levels, and whole-blood RNA-seq data obtained from eight PRRSV-infected piglets. We utilised a cell deconvolution approach to calculate cell type enrichment, constructed a time-serial gene co-expression network with differentially expressed genes, and conducted functional annotations. …”
