Pathways created by GeneMANIA connect the master regulator NFIX and its regulated genes IL6ST, TIMP1 and ITGB1. (A) 17 differentially expressed genes from microarray analyses showed connection with all regulated genes and NFIX. Some genes showed co-expression with NFIX, including PTCH1. (B) Successful construction of a new transcriptional network from both meta-analysis and microarray analyses. NFIX was identified as a master regulator that regulates the ITGB1, TIMP1 and IL6ST genes. Three new entities: the PTCH1, NFAT5 and GGCX, were also included in this metastasis regulatory network for lung cancer. NFIX is the master regulator; IL6ST, TIMP1 and ITGB1 are the NFIX-regulated genes and PTCH1, NFAT5 and GGCX are genes involved in the NFIX transcriptional regulatory network.
