The protein–protein interaction (PPI) network of differently expressed genes (DEGs) between FOLFIRI-resistant and -sensitive CRC patients delivered several potential irinotecan resistance markers: NDUFA2, SDHD, LSM5, DCAF4, COX10 RBM8A, TIMP1, QKI, TGOLN2, and PTGS2. Here, LSM5 is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
