PPI network of DEGs and three cluster modules extracted by MCODE. (a) The interaction network between proteins coded by DEGs. (b) The interaction between the ten identified hub genes. Each node represents a protein, whereas each edge represents one protein–protein association. The purple rectangles represent the upregulated gene, and the yellow ones represent the downregulated gene. Two cluster modules extracted by MCODE. (c) Cluster 1 had higher cluster score (), followed by (d) cluster 2 ().
