Fig. 6From: Bladder cancer stage-associated hub genes revealed by WGCNA co-expression network analysisThe mRNA expression of 16 hub genes in different tumor stage of TCGA patients. The stage III and stage IV were set high degree stage group and the stage I and stage II were set low degree stage group. The Wilcoxon test was done between the two groups. The genes whose P-value ranked from low to high were as follows: a COL6A3. b CDH11. c COL8A1. d NTM. e COL11A1. f MMP2. g BGN. h COL1A1. i COL5A1. j COL3A1. k PXDN. l THBS2. m COL1A2. n THY1. o AEBP1. p TGFB1I1. Except for the expression of TGFB1I1, others were significant in distinguishing low and high tumor stage (P-value< 0.05)Back to article page
