LAMC1 and colorectal carcinoma: Structural equation modeling revealed an active CRC−ion channel module (CRC-IC) comprising 482 nodes and 422 edges, highlighting dysregulated interactions between ECM components (e.g., COL1A1, COL5A2, VCAN, LAMA4, LA-MA5, LAMC1), ion channels (e.g., TRPM5 and SLC16A1), and cytoskeletal regulators.
