From: Dramatic dysbalancing of the Wnt pathway in breast cancers

Figure 2

Distribution of the correlation coefficiets for the Wnt genes overlayed on average distribution of correlation coefficients in 500 random genes set in healthy tissues (a); TNBC (b) or non-TNBC (c) tumors. Pathway-related genes show significantly higher numbers of positive strong correlations as compared to the random genes in the healthy breast tissue, while gene co-regulation is dramatically lost in cancer both for random genes and Wnt pathway gene sets. The pathway distributions are narrower and more right-shifted as compared to average random set. P values are given from Kolmogorov-Smirnov test indicating unequality of distributions.
