From: Identification of five hub genes as monitoring biomarkers for breast cancer metastasis in silico
Flow chart of data preparation, processing, analysis, and validation. The gene expression profiles of GSE102484 were downloaded from the GEO database. WGCNA and PPI networks were further used to investigate potential biomarkers associated with the clinical stages and risk of distant metastasis. In addition, the prognostic value and differential expression of hub genes were validated based on data from TCGA-BRCA and KM Plotter
