Figure 1 Gene expression profiling analysis in PTCL. (A) Hierarchical clustering of gene expression profiles generated from five AITL samples and five normal T-cell samples. DEGs were selected with a fold change >2 and P-value < 0.001 among the mRNA expression profiling; (B) Ten samples are clustered according to the expression of 17 differentially expressed genes; (C and D) Top 30 enrichment of GO terms and KEGG pathways for differentially expressed genes; (E) The PPI network of 17 DEGs was constructed. Red cycle nodes represent genes, and the edges represent interaction between genes, the width of edges represents the combined score.
