Сводка	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.	Pathway enrichment analysis (PEA) is a statistical approach that takes a list of genes or proteins of interest — typically derived from a differential expression or proteomics experiment — and identifies which pre-defined biological pathways or functional gene sets are represented more often than expected by chance. By mapping individual molecular changes onto curated pathway knowledge bases such as KEGG, Gene Ontology, or Reactome, PEA translates long gene lists into interpretable biological processes, making it a central tool in the post-analysis of high-throughput omics experiments.
