Domain-specific biomarkers identified by the spatial-domain networks are used to interrogate the KEGG and STRING databases to identify domain-specific pathways enriched by the biomarkers. The epithelial, stromal, and epithelial-stromal domain are, respectively, shown in green, red, and blue, with pathways unique to those domains also coded with the same colors. Pathways that are enriched in more than one domain are coded with a color combination of those respective domains. For example, the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway is enriched in all three spatial domains, and therefore, has a boundary box color-coded with all three colors. On the other hand, the mismatch repair pathway is enriched in the epithelial and epithelial-stromal domains, and is therefore, color-coded by red and blue colors.
