The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed based on DE mRNAs, the related clusters were identified using ClusterONE algorithm. (A) The global profiles of GLE treatment related PPI network was built. The red nodes represent the differential expressed mRNAs. (B) The topological profile of GLE treatment related Cluster-PPI network, the red nodes represent the differential expressed mRNAs. (C) The kernel mRNA clusters isolated from Cluster-PPI network. (D) The qRT-PCR was used to validate 6 potential kernel mRNAs, and the expression levels of 6 kernel mRNAs have statistically significant difference in GLE treated Hepa1-6-bearing C57 BL/6 mice. (E) The expression tendency of 6 kernel mRNAs in the microarray. (F,G) Western-blot assay was used to further validate the 6 kernel mRNAs. Representative results of three independent experiments are shown. Error bars, *P < 0.01 versus model values. Representative results of three independent experiments are shown. The β-actin was used as a loading control. Error bars, *P < 0.01 versus model values.
