Expression of DHFR in the resistant group across all datasets and cell types

check buttonRed dots represent significantly high expression in the resistant group, while blue dots represent significantly low expression in the resistant group. White dots represent that there is no significant difference in the expression of this gene between the resistant and sensitive groups. Blank represents that this cell type is not present in this dataset. (If the image exists, the user can click on it to enlarge it in a new window.)
