Why this annotation

Hub genes include CASP6 (caspase-6, apoptosis executioner), BCLAF1 (BCL2-associated transcription factor, apoptosis regulator), ROCK2 (Rho kinase, apoptosis/cytoskeletal signaling), PTP4A2 (phosphatase modulating survival signaling), and RNA-binding proteins PTBP3, FAM120A, SYNCRIP that regulate apoptotic mRNA processing. The module combines apoptosis execution and its RNA-level regulation. Significant response to CD treatment supports a regulated cell death program in M-like cells.
