KEGG pathway analysis showed that PI3K-AKT signaling pathway (p = 2.1 × 10−12), cancer pathway (p = 3.8 × 10−10), and MAPK signaling pathway (p = 1.5 × 10−8) are the cores of the top three pathways (Figure 4B), suggesting that cinnamic acid may inhibit liver cancer progression by regulating these pathways. This evidence concerns the gene AKT1 and cancer.
