Iron metabolism gene expression and prognostic features of hepatocellular carcinoma

Iron metabolism is crucial to hepatocellular carcinoma progression and is a key determinant of prognosis. Protein‐protein interactions within the iron metabolism gene network were analyzed using the European Molecular Biology Laboratory's Search Tool for Recurring Instances of Neighbouring Genes/Proteins database. We obtained 423 liver hepatocellular carcinoma gene expression profiles from the Cancer Genome Atlas database. The expression and...
