From: Identification of key autophagy-related genes and pathways in spinal cord injury
Spearman correlation analysis of autophagy-related genes that were differentially expressed in the top 50 between the SCI samples and the control samples. The results revealed various correlations among the 50 genes. FAS and CSTB showed the strongest positive correlation (Cor = 1.00). Several negatively correlated gene pairs were found among these 50 genes, including IL-24 and PCNA, VAMP8 and PNF1, and TUBA8 and IGFBP3, of these, IL-24 and CD44 had the strongest negative correlation (Cor = − 0.98).
