The network analysis for differential candidate gene in hypoxia condition for carcinogenesis. The high-dose UV radiation can lead to DNA damage and tumorigenesis in high-altitude condition; thus, gene networks analyses of key genes involved in the high-altitude adaptation could provide new information about carcinogenesis. A total of 27 candidate genes was identified for differential variants in males and females in this investigation (Tables 7 and 8). Chicken Ensembl gene identifications were converted into human orthologs in order to construct an informative network and finally, results showed that seven candidate genes were enriched in carcinogenesis network and had a regulatory role. Specifically, BMX and LRP6 induce the carcinogenesis and HSPA14, and DCLRE1A inhibits that.
