NOTCH2 blockade alters the expression of diverse genes in NOTCH2/BCR-stimulated B cells from active cGVHD patients. RNA samples used in the NanoString analysis described in Figure 2C were also subjected to Illumina HiSeq 125-bp paired-end sequencing. Genes shown represent those significantly altered by NOTCH2 blockade ranked in order of significance based on the adjusted P value, determined as described in supplemental Methods. All genes with an adjusted P value of <.05 are shown.

GPCR, G-protein–coupled receptor; LPS, lipopolysaccharide; mRNA, messenger RNA; ncRNA, noncoding RNA.

Genes shown in bold are downregulated by NOTCH2 blockade.
