WGCNA and functional annotations for DEGs in different modules. a The heatmap showed the DEGs between 30 paracancerous tissues and 30 tumour tissues. b The volcano plot showed the DEGs between 30 paracancerous tissues and 30 tumour tissues. The red dots represented up-regulated significant DEGs and the blue dots represented sown-regulated significant DEGs. c WGCNA network heatmap showed cluster dendrogram and genetic similarity among different modules. d Functional annotations for 1827 ORDEGs. e Top-level gene ontology biological processes enrichment of turquoise module、blue module、brown module and green module. f Functional annotations for ORDEGs in turquoise module. g Functional annotations for ORDEGs in blue module. h Functional annotations for ORDEGs in brown module. i Functional annotations for ORDEGs in green module
