Fig. 6

Changes in the arginolytic pathway gene content and expression after fluoride + arginine treatment. The degradation of arginine to NH3 and CO2 via the ADS pathway and the genes involved are represented at the top of the figure. The abundance of the genes (as inferred from the MTG dataset) in CA and CF patients before (orange) and after (green) the treatment is represented on the middle panels, while changes in the gene expression (as inferred from the MTT dataset) are shown on the bottom panels. *Statistically significant difference, p < 0.05. st, statistical trend, p < 0.1
