GlossaryDifferentially Expressed Genes (differential expression analysis)

genes showing varied activity levels under different conditions

Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs) are genes that show different levels of expression in different conditions, such as between healthy and diseased tissues. For example, in the context of alopecia, DEGs might be identified by comparing gene activity in hair follicles from individuals with alopecia to those without, helping researchers understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the condition.
