*The ‘p-value’ was calculated using the right-tailed Fisher Exact Test and corrected for false discovery rate by the Benjamini-Hochberg method. Only those categories with a p value <0.05 are considered significant and therefore are presented. #The ‘number of genes’ represents the number of differentially expressed genes belonging to the specific IPA category in the Cr(VI) treated cells.
