Weighted gene co-expression network analysis of hub genes in lung adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a tumor with high incidence. This study aimed to identify the central genes of LUAD. LUAD were analyzed by weighted gene co-expression network (WGCNA), and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. Samples were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype Tissue Expression (GTEx) databases and ...

PyWGCNA: a Python package for weighted gene co-expression network analysis
Abstract Motivation Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) is frequently used to identify modules of genes that are co-expressed across many RNA-seq samples. However, the current R implementation is slow, is not designed to compare modules between multiple WGCNA networks, and its ...

Identification of key gene modules and genes in colorectal cancer by co-expression analysis weighted gene co-expression network analysis [PDF]
Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) has been one of the most common malignancies worldwide, which tends to get worse for the growth and aging of the population and westernized lifestyle. However, there is no effective treatment due to the complexity of its etiology. Hence, the pathogenic mechanisms remain to be clearly defined.
