Fold change of serotonin-related genes (TpH1, SLC6A4, HTR3A and HTR4) in PIPO patients compared to controls in the different intestinal districts. The basal expression of 5-HT related genes in controls has a fold change of 1. The expression in PIPO patients is normalized with the basal expression of controls and the average fold changes are shown in the graph. All the over-expressions are represented up the basal line and all the under-expressions are represented down the basal line. The up- and down- regulation are considered statistically considerable for fold change values over 2 and under 0.5, respectively. Error bars: SD, n = 7
