Nine Genes Mediate the Therapeutic Effects of Iodine-131 Radiotherapy in Thyroid Carcinoma Patients

Figure 3

The hierarchical clustering tree of WGCNA. The module that was relevant with I¹³¹ radiotherapy in THCA was analysed by using the WGCNA. The expression matrix obtained through data preprocessing was subjected to standardization, and the genes with median absolute deviation in the top 75% and larger than 0.01 were screened. After screening and removing the outlier, the one-step method was used to build the WGCNA network, and each module was visualized in the hierarchical clustering tree. The table showed the number of clustered genes in the functional modules. The figure showed the hierarchical clustering tree of the weighted gene coexpression network. Grey indicates a cluster of genes that are not included in any of the functional modules.
