Identification of hub genes related to CD4+ memory T cell infiltration with gene co-expression network predicts prognosis and immunotherapy effect in colon adenocarcinoma
Abstract:Background: CD4+ memory T cells (CD4+ MTCs), as an important part of the microenvironment affecting tumorigenesis and progression, have rarely been systematically analyzed. Our purpose was to comprehensively analyze the effect of CD4+ MTC infiltration on the prognosis of colon adenocarcinoma (COAD).Methods: Based on RNA-Seq data, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to screen the CD4+ MTC infiltration genes most associated with colon cancer and then identify hub genes and construct a p… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
