Резюме	Network-based RNA-seq differential expression analysis integrates conventional differential expression testing with gene interaction networks — such as protein-protein interaction graphs or weighted co-expression networks — to identify not just individual differentially expressed genes but coherent, biologically meaningful gene modules that change together between conditions. This approach substantially reduces false positives and surfaces pathway-level signals invisible to gene-by-gene testing.	Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) is a computational method that determines whether a predefined set of genes — representing a biological pathway, process, or function — shows statistically significant, coordinated differences between two biological conditions. Unlike simple fold-change filtering, GSEA operates on all measured genes ranked by a correlation metric, detecting subtle but consistent shifts across an entire pathway even when no single gene passes a significance threshold.
