Immune-Related lncRNAs with WGCNA Identified the Function of SNHG10 in HBV-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Detection of co-expression modules of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). (a) Network topology analysis of different soft-threshold power values, including the scale-free fit index (y-axis) and the average connectivity degree (y-axis). Scale-free topology and adjacency matrix were defined by using the soft-thresholds of β = 3. (b) Clustering tree of different immune-related mRNAs with dissimilarity based on topological overlap along with assigned module colors. Nine co-expression modules were identified. (c) Gene topological overlap matrix heat map based on co-expression modules. (d) Heatmap of the gene network.
