LGALS9 and colorectal carcinoma: Among the positively enriched pathways, the highest NES values were observed for Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition (NES~1.6), E2F targets (NES~1.5), and G2M checkpoint (NES~1.4), suggesting enhanced cellular processes linked to cell cycle progression, proliferation, and epithelia–mesenchymal transition in the Gal-9 high-expressing CRC samples group.
