The Gene Ontologies (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis show that genes in both these two modules are mainly enriched in cancer‐related pathways, so 6 tumour stage‐related hub genes were identified from the two gene modules, including RPS6KA6, SORBS2, EPHB3, QSOX1, S100A6 and UNC5CL. Here, SORBS2 is linked to cancer.
