Analysis on degree distribution of tumor signaling networks
Tumorigenesis is a multi-factorial and multi-step process, among which the changes in cell signaling pathways play a key role. Up till now there are fewer studies on network structure of tumor signaling pathways. In present study the degree distribution was analyzed based on thirty kinds of tumor si...
