[WGCNA]: How to extract genes that are connected to a hub gene of interest?

Dear All,

Can someone recommend an approach that can be used for extracting genes that are connected to a hub gene of interest in the module of the gene co-expression network constructed with WGCNA? I have module genes name but I am interest in extracting genes connected to a hub gene of interest for further downstream analysis.

Thanks in advance!
