  1. The columns show the UniProt protein IDs and protein names of all of the proteins that were found to be correlated with MNP uptake. Correlation was defined as having an absolute Pearson correlation coefficient (R) > 0.5, with a positive R-coefficient indicating a positive correlation and a negative R-coefficient indicating an inverse correlation. The table is ordered from highest absolute correlation to lowest absolute correlation. The enriched in the column indicates whether the protein was enriched in any of the particle treatment combinations (Additional file 2). The numbers in the last column provide a link to the x-axis label in Fig. 9
