GSE39001 (GPL201)	Healthy endocervix/exocervix and HPV16-positive cervical cancer biopsy (29 were squamous cell carcinomas, 13 were adenocarcinomas, and 1 was adenosquamous carcinoma)	12	43	[23]
GSE39001 (GPL6244)	Healthy exocervix and HPV16-positive cervical cancer biopsy (18 were squamous cell carcinomas and 1 were adenocarcinoma)	5	19	[23]
GSE52903	Healthy exocervix and squamous cell carcinomas of the cervix (51 were squamous cell carcinomas, 3 were adenocarcinomas, and 1 was adenosquamous carcinoma)	17	55	[24]
GSE63514	Normal cervical epithelium and cervical squamous epithelial cancer	24	28	[22]
GSE67522	HPV-negative normal cervical tissues and HPV-positive cervical squamous epithelial cancer tissues	12	20	[25]

The microarray data were downloaded from the NCBI-GEO database. The differential expressed genes (DEGs) from each data set were used to enrich pathways (Figure 2) and to query the CMap (Figure 7).
