Archetype | Associated PNEC task | Optimized function for increased tumor fitness |
---|---|---|
SCLC-A | Proliferation | Increased cell proliferationb |
SCLC-A2 | Neuro- and immuno-modulatory signaling | Evading immune destruction and tumor-promoting inflammation |
SCLC-N | Slithering and axon-like protrusions | Activating invasion and metastasisb |
SCLC-P | Chemosensation and metabolism | Reprogramming energy metabolism |
SCLC-Y | Transdifferentiation to non-NE state in response to injury | Inducing angiogenesis and resisting cell death |
All enriched Cancer Hallmark Gene Sets are shown in Table S4.
Cancer hallmark is inferred from GO term enrichment rather than the enrichment of Cancer Hallmark Gene Sets.
