Protein-protein interaction analysis was further conducted in STRING database (https://string-db.org/). The higher or larger score protein-protein interaction pairs were selected to construct PPI networks. Then, the regulatory relationships between genes were visualized via Cytoscape (version 3.4.0) (18). The sub-networks were extracted from the whole PPI network by using MCODE app.
