Identification and validation of key genes in gastric cancer: insights from in silico analysis, clinical samples, and functional assays
Figure 3. This figure illustrates the process of constructing protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, analyzing them, and identifying hub genes. (A) Panel A presents the PPI network formed by the 83 common DEGs from GSE118916, GSE79973, and GSE29272. (B) Panel B displays the PPI network of these DEGs highlighting hub genes identified through degree and MCC methods. (C) Panel C showcases a refined PPI network focusing solely on the four identified hub genes.
