Figure Lengend Snippet: A GSVA of the risk score cohorts. Differentially expressed pathways were identified using GSVA through hallmark gene sets. B Scatterplot showing the top eight Pearson correlations between mRNAsi scores and the model genes in TCGA-HCC patients. C Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) with high and low MCM10 expression. The stemness-associated and drug-resistance-related sets enriched high MCM10 expression, including the E2F-targets, PI3K-AKT-MTOR signaling, are shown. D , E Western blots showing expression levels of total and phosphorylated AKT, PI3K, S6K1, and 4EBP1 proteins in MCM10‐overexpressed HepG2(D), MCM10‐knockout HepG2-SR(E), and control cells. P < 0.05, FDR < 0.25.
