Abstract  

As one of common cancers in urinary system, the morbidity of renal tumor is increasing year by year. Firstly, the genes differentially expressed were screened based on Affymetrix hgu133b microarray data. The algorithm of Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis was used to construct the co-expression network of the genes differentially expressed in renal tumor. Secondly, the module that is closely related with the tumor and hub genes were selected by analyzing the correlation patterns of the genes differentially expressed between normal and tumor tissues in kidney. Finally, the Gene Ontology enrichment of the hub genes was analyzed. Cell aging is one mechanism of suppressing tumorigenesis. The results indicated hub genes PLA2R1 and TBX3 are related to cell aging and could have an important effect on the tumor formation. The results corresponded with the investigation that gene PLA2R1 suppresses tumorigenesis in the kidney by promoting cellular senescence.
