Figure 1.

Supervised hierarchical clustering of 39 colon cancer samples (23 MSS and 16 MSI-H) using expression data from the list of 86 differentially expressed mRNA/miRNA genes described in Supplemental Tables 1 and 3. Columns display the clustering of tumor samples; rows the clustering of genes. MSI status is indicated by colored squares: red for MSS and yellow for MSI-H tumor samples. All sample were properly assigned to the correct class. The expression intensity of each gene in each sample varies from red to green: red color means an expression value over the average across samples, green color the opposite. For quantification of color codes, see color-bar on the right.
