Core module biomarker identification with network exploration for breast cancer metastasis
18 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: In a complex disease, the expression of many genes can be significantly altered, leading to the appearance of a differentially expressed "disease module". Some of these genes directly correspond to the disease phenotype, (i.e. "driver" genes), while others represent closely-related first-degree neighbours in gene interaction space. The remaining genes consist of further removed "passenger" genes,...
