Besides, KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the DEGs were statistically enriched in pathways related to cancer such as PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, Jak-STAT signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway and Wnt signaling pathway, which may be associated with the NPC promotion of heterozygous p53-R280T mutation. The gene discussed is SOAT1; the disease is nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
