- Expression of genes is given as mRNA level. Values are presented as mean ± SD and are log2 transformed. Differences between tertiles were analyzed using the independent samples t test. P values < 0.05 were considered significant
- *Genes differentially expressed between subjects in the highest and lowest n-3 tertile and between subjects in the highest and lowest SFA to PUFA ratio tertile. The genes presented in italics are expressed by more than one probe (shown in Additional file 3: Table S3). The probe with lowest p-value is shown in Table 4
