PLOD2 and cervical carcinoma: Importantly, the DEGs with more important changes were 11 coding genes that were upregulated (KIF4A, MCM5, RFC4, PLOD2, MMP12, PRC1, TOP2A, MCM2, RAD51AP1, KIF20A, AIM2) and 14 that were downregulated (CXCL14, KRT1, KRT13, MAL, SPINK5, EMP1, CRISP3, ALOX12, CRNN, SPRR3, PPP1R3C, IVL, CFD, CRCT1), which were associated with cervical cancer.
