The results obtained from ShinyGO were saved in a .csv file and used for visualisation (find file in *output* directory). 5. **Visualisation of Pathways**: Visualised the top 5 upregulated pathways using the results obtained from the enrichment analysis to generate a lollipop plot (scaled by the \-log10 of the p-value to indicate pathway significance) for better clarity and interpretation of the enriched pathways. - **R Function**: *ggplot()* is used to create various plots in R, such as scatter plots, bar plots and lollipop plots in R, with customizations for layers, scales and themes. - + **R Function**: *ggplot()* is used to create various plots in R, such as scatter plots, bar plots and lollipop plots in R, with customizations for layers, scales and themes. +### Biological Significance of Top Upregulated Pathways +In summary, the top three pathways all point to the adaptive ability of tumour cells to ensure their survival and proliferation, leading to metastasis. + ### Directory Structure * **/code**: This directory contains all the R codes used for data analysis and visualisation, for each step in the workflow.
