Using David tool, we revealed that CTHRC1-related genes were involved in seven different pathways including Basal cell carcinoma, Melanogenesis, Wnt signaling pathway, Signaling pathways regulating pluripotency of stem cells, Hippo signaling pathway, Proteoglycans in cancer, and Notch signaling pathway (Fig. 14; Table 3). Here, CTHRC1 is linked to cancer.
