Background Fatigue is a common side effect of cancer (CA) treatment. We used a novel analytical method to identify and validate a specific gene cluster that is predictive of fatigue risk in prostate cancer patients (PCP) treated with radiotherapy (RT). Methods A total of 44 PCP were categorized into high-fatigue (HF) and low-fatigue (LF) cohorts based on fatigue score change from baseline to RT completion. Fold-change differential and Fisher's linear discriminant analyses (LDA) from 27 subjects with gene expression data at baseline and RT completion generated a reduced base of most discriminatory genes (learning phase). A nearest-neighbor risk (k-NN) prediction model was developed based on small-scale prognostic signatures. The predictive model validity was tested in another 17 subjects using baseline gene expression data (validation phase). Result The model generated in the learning phase predicted HF classification at RT completion in the validation phase with 76.5% accuracy. Conclusion The results suggest that a novel analytical algorithm that incorporates fold-change differential analysis, LDA, and a k-NN may have applicability in predicting regimen-related toxicity in cancer patients with high reliability, if we take into account these results and the limited amount of data that we had at disposal. It is expected that the accuracy will be improved by increasing data sampling in the learning phase.

Increased Risk

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have achieved great success in identifying single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs, herein called genetic variants) and genes associated with risk of developing prostate cancer. However, GWAS do not typically link the genetic variants to the disease state or inform the broader context in which the genetic variants operate. Here, we present a novel integrative genomics approach that combines GWAS information with gene expression data to infer the causal association between gene expression and the disease and to identify the network states and biological pathways enriched for genetic variants. We identified gene regulatory networks and biological pathways enriched for genetic variants, including the prostate cancer, IGF-1, JAK2, androgen, and prolactin signaling pathways. The integration of GWAS information with gene expression data provides insights about the broader context in which genetic variants associated with an increased risk of developing prostate cancer operate.

Gene Functions

Time-course single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data have been widely applied to reconstruct the cell-type-specific gene regulatory networks by exploring the dynamic changes of gene expression between transcription factors (TFs) and their target genes. The existing algorithms were commonly designed to analyze bulk gene expression data and could not deal with the dropouts and cell heterogeneity in scRNA-seq data. In this paper, we developed dynDeepDRIM that represents gene pair joint expression as images and considers the neighborhood context to eliminate the transitive interactions. dynDeepDRIM integrated the primary image, neighbor images with time-course into a four-dimensional tensor and trained a convolutional neural network to predict the direct regulatory interactions between TFs and genes. We evaluated the performance of dynDeepDRIM on five time-course gene expression datasets. dynDeepDRIM outperformed the state-of-the-art methods for predicting TF-gene direct interactions and gene functions. We also observed gene functions could be better performed if more neighbor images were involved.

AbstractGene expression studies revealed a large degree of variability in gene expression patterns particularly in tissues even in genetically identical individuals. It helps to reveal the components majorly fluctuating during the disease condition. With the advent of gene expression studies many microarray studies have been conducted in prostate cancer, but the results have varied across different studies. To better understand the genetic and biological regulatory mechanisms of prostate cancer, we conducted a meta-analysis of three major pathways i.e. androgen receptor (AR), mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) and Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) on prostate cancer. Meta-analysis has been performed for the gene expression data for the human species that are exposed to prostate cancer. Twelve datasets comprising AR, mTOR, and MAPK pathways were taken for analysis, out of which thirteen potential biomarkers were identified through meta-analysis. These findings were compiled based upon the quantitative data analysis by using different tools. Also, various interconnections were found amongst the pathways in study. Our study suggests that the microarray analysis of the gene expression data and their pathway level connections allows detection of the potential predictors that can prove to be putative therapeutic targets with biological and functional significance in progression of prostate cancer.

Matrix Approximations

In most real-world gene expression data sets, there are often multiple sample classes with ordinals, which are categorized into the normal or diseased type. The traditional feature or attribute selection methods consider multiple classes equally without paying attention to the up/down regulation across the normal and diseased types of classes, while the specific gene selection methods particularly consider the differential expressions across the normal and diseased, but ignore the existence of multiple classes. In this paper, to improve the biomarker discovery, we propose to make the best use of these two aspects: the differential expressions (that can be viewed as the domain knowledge of gene expression data) and the multiple classes (that can be viewed as a kind of data set characteristic). Therefore, we simultaneously take into account these two aspects by employing the 1-rank generalized matrix approximations (GMA). Our results show that GMA cannot only improve the accuracy of classifying the samples, but also provide a visualization method to effectively analyze the gene expression data on both genes and samples. Based on the mechanism of matrix approximation, we further propose an algorithm, CBiomarker, to discover compact biomarker by reducing the redundancy.
