Identification of exosome-related patterns in the GSE9891 cohort. (A) Analysis of the scale-free fitting indices for different soft-thresholding powers (β). (B) Mean connectivity analysis of different soft-thresholding powers. (C) Clustering dendrograms of genes were based on dissimilarity topological overlap and module colours. As a result, 28 co-expressed modules except grey module were constructed and labeled with different colours. These modules were arranged from large to small according to the number of genes included. (D) Heatmap of the correlation between module eigengenes and exosome scores of ovarian cancer. The turquoise gene module was revealed to exhibit the highest correlation with exosome score. (E) Scatter plots showing the relationship between MM and GS in the turquoise module. (F) GO analyses of genes in the turquoise module
