Identification and validation of key modules and hub genes associated with the pathological stage of oral squamous cell carcinoma by weighted gene co-expression network analysis

Background Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a major lethal malignant cancer of the head and neck region, yet its molecular mechanisms of tumourigenesis are still unclear. Patients and methods We performed weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) on RNA-sequencing data with clinical...
