Okay, let me tackle this step by step. The user wants me to figure out how the pathway enrichment analysis was conducted in the provided scientific article. They have six specific questions, and I need to answer each based on the information given in the text. Since the user mentioned to focus on the Methods section but also check other sections if needed, I should scan through the entire article provided. First, I'll look for the Methods section. Wait, the user provided the full text of the article, but in the given content, the sections after the Results are Discussion and Acknowledgements. There's no explicit Methods section here. Hmm, that's a problem. The user might have missed including the Methods part, or maybe it's embedded elsewhere. Let me check again. Looking through the text, under the Results section, there's a part where they mention pathway analysis. Specifically, in the Results, Table II is labeled as Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. The table lists terms like hsa04064: NF-κB signaling pathway, etc. So they used KEGG for the pathway analysis. The question is about the tool used. Since KEGG is a database, but the tool might be something like DAVID, KOBAS, or another enrichment tool. The article might not explicitly state the tool. Let me check the text again. In the Results section, they say "Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes." The term "Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes" is KEGG itself, but the analysis tool isn't named here. Sometimes people refer to the analysis as KEGG enrichment, even if they used a tool like KOBAS or DAVID. Alternatively, maybe they used KEGG's own tools like KEGG Orthology-Based Annotation System (KOBA). But without the Methods section, it's hard to tell. The authors might have used a standard tool but didn't mention it. Since it's not in the text provided, I have to note that it's not described. Next, the tool version: the user asks if a version was provided. Since the tool isn't named, version info is also missing. Gene set library: They used KEGG pathways, as Table II is explicitly labeled as KEGG pathway analysis, so the library is KEGG. Background gene list: The question is whether they defined a background list. The article might have used all genes analyzed in the experiment as the background. But since the Methods aren't here, unless mentioned elsewhere, it's not described. The table lists genes like ICAM1, TNF, etc., but without knowing the total genes considered, it's unclear if a background was defined. Statistical test: The table shows P-values. The question is what test was used. The standard tests are hypergeometric or Fisher's exact test for enrichment. The article mentions "Pathway terms with P<0.05 were considered statistically significant," so they probably used a p-value from a hypergeometric test, but since the method isn't detailed, it's not explicitly stated here. False discovery rate (FDR): The text says P<0.05 was the threshold, but doesn't mention FDR correction. FDR is a method to adjust p-values for multiple testing. Since they just used a p-value cutoff without mentioning adjustment like Benjamini-Hochberg, it might not have been used. But again, without the Methods section, it's not specified. Putting this all together, most answers will be "not described" except for the gene set library which is KEGG. The tool isn't named, version isn't given, background isn't mentioned, statistical test isn't specified beyond p-values, and FDR isn't mentioned either. 1. **What tool was used for pathway enrichment analysis?** Not described. The article mentions KEGG pathway analysis (Table II) but does not specify the tool (e.g., DAVID, KOBAS, or KEGG’s native tools). 2. **Was a tool version number provided?** Not described. 3. **What gene set library was queried (e.g., GO, KEGG, Reactome or other)?** KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) was used, as indicated in Table II. 4. **Was a background gene list defined for pathway enrichment analysis?** Not described. The analysis likely used differentially expressed genes (as listed in Tables I and II), but the background gene set (e.g., all genes profiled) is not specified. 5. **What statistical test was used for enrichment analysis?** Not explicitly stated. The results report P-values (e.g., P<0.001 for NF-κB signaling pathway), suggesting a test like the hypergeometric or Fisher’s exact test, but this is inferred, not described in the text. 6. **Was false discovery rate correction used to control the number of false positives in the pathway enrichment analysis?** Not described. The article only mentions a P-value threshold of <0.05 without referencing FDR adjustments (e.g., Benjamini-Hochberg).
