The differential expressed protein–protein interaction network and network modules. a Protein and protein interaction (PPI) pairs of the 116 DEGs were constructed using the STRING database, and 71 PPI pairs were derived. b Modules of the PPI network were analyzed using Cytoscape plugin DCOME. Three significant modules containing 12 hub genes were identified. Module 1 comprise CTSS, NOTCH4, IL8, CREB1, TCF3, and SERPINA1, module 2 comprise PTGER3, RGS4, and OPRM1, and module 3 comprise MPP6, FGFR1, and NSUN3
