Systematic analysis of breast atypical hyperplasia-associated hub genes and pathways based on text mining

The purpose of this study was to describe breast atypical hyperplasia (BAH)-related gene expression and to systematically analyze the functions, pathways, and networks of BAH-related hub genes. On the basis of natural language processing, gene data for BAH were extracted from the PubMed database using text mining. The enriched Gene Ontology terms and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways were obtained using DAVID (http://david.abcc.ncifcrf.gov/). A protein–protein interaction network was constructed using the STRING database. Hub genes were identified as genes that interact with at least 10 other genes within the BAH-related gene network. In total, 138 BAH-associated genes were identified as significant (P
