Over Time

The possible applications of modeling and simulation in the field of bioinformatics are very extensive, ranging from understanding basic metabolic paths to exploring genetic variability. Experimental results carried out with DNA microarrays allow researchers to measure expression levels for thousands of genes simultaneously, across different conditions and over time. A key step in the analysis of gene expression data is the detection of groups of genes that manifest similar expression patterns. In this chapter, the authors examine various methods for analyzing gene expression data, addressing the important topics of (1) selecting the most differentially expressed genes, (2) grouping them by means of their relationships, and (3) classifying samples based on gene expressions.

High-throughput technologies generate a tremendous amount of expression data on mRNA, miRNA and protein levels. Mining and visualizing the large amount of expression data requires sophisticated computational skills. An easy to use and user-friendly web-server for the visualization of gene expression profiles could greatly facilitate data exploration and hypothesis generation for biologists. Here, we curated and normalized the gene expression data on mRNA, miRNA and protein levels in 23315, 9009 and 9244 samples, respectively, from 40 tissues (The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GETx)) and 1594 cell lines (Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) and MD Anderson Cell Lines Project (MCLP)). Then, we constructed the Gene Expression Display Server (GEDS), a web-based tool for quantification, comparison and visualization of gene expression data. GEDS integrates multiscale expression data and provides multiple types of figures and tables to satisfy several kinds of user requirements. The comprehensive expression profiles plotted in the one-stop GEDS platform greatly facilitate experimental biologists utilizing big data for better experimental design and analysis.

Mutational Status

Abstract A particular profile of gene expression can reflect an underlying molecular abnormality in malignancy. Distinct gene expression profiles and deregulated gene pathways can be driven by specific gene mutations and may shed light on the biology of the disease and lead to the identification of new therapeutic targets. We selected 143 cases from our large-scale gene expression profiling (GEP) dataset on bone marrow CD34+ cells from patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), for which matching genotyping data were obtained using next-generation sequencing of a comprehensive list of 111 genes involved in myeloid malignancies (including the spliceosomal genes SF3B1, SRSF2, U2AF1 and ZRSR2, as well as TET2, ASXL1and many other). The GEP data were then correlated with the mutational status to identify significantly differentially expressed genes associated with each of the most common gene mutations found in MDS. The expression levels of the mutated genes analyzed were generally lower in patients carrying a mutation than in patients wild-type for that gene (e.g. SF3B1, ASXL1 and TP53), with the exception of RUNX1 for which patients carrying a mutation showed higher expression levels than patients without mutation. Principal components analysis showed that the main directions of gene expression changes (principal components) tend to coincide with some of the common gene mutations, including SF3B1, SRSF2 and TP53. SF3B1 and STAG2 were the mutated genes showing the highest number of associated significantly differentially expressed genes, including ABCB7 as differentially expressed in association with SF3B1 mutation and SULT2A1 in association with STAG2 mutation. We found distinct differentially expressed genes associated with the four most common splicing gene mutations (SF3B1, SRSF2, U2AF1 and ZRSR2) in MDS, suggesting that different phenotypes associated with these mutations may be driven by different effects on gene expression and that the target gene may be different. We have also evaluated the prognostic impact of the GEP data in comparison with that of the genotype data and importantly we have found a larger contribution of gene expression data in predicting progression free survival compared to mutation-based multivariate survival models. In summary, this analysis correlating gene expression data with genotype data has revealed that the mutational status shapes the gene expression landscape. We have identified deregulated genes associated with the most common gene mutations in MDS and found that the prognostic power of gene expression data is greater than the prognostic power provided by mutation data.

AbstractDeconvolution of bulk gene expression profiles into the cellular components is pivotal to portraying tissue’s complex cellular make-up, such as the tumor microenvironment. However, the inherently variable nature of gene expression requires a comprehensive statistical model and reliable prior knowledge of individual cell types that can be obtained from single-cell RNA sequencing. We introduce BLADE (Bayesian Log-normAl Deconvolution), a unified Bayesian framework to estimate both cellular composition and gene expression profiles for each cell type. Unlike previous comprehensive statistical approaches, BLADE can handle > 20 types of cells due to the efficient variational inference. Throughout an intensive evaluation with > 700 simulated and real datasets, BLADE demonstrated enhanced robustness against gene expression variability and better completeness than conventional methods, in particular, to reconstruct gene expression profiles of each cell type. In summary, BLADE is a powerful tool to unravel heterogeneous cellular activity in complex biological systems from standard bulk gene expression data.

Abstract High-resolution deconvolution of bulk gene expression profiles is pivotal to characterize the complex cellular make-up of tissues, such as tumor microenvironment. Single-cell RNA-seq provides reliable prior knowledge for deconvolution, however, a comprehensive statistical model is required for efficient utilization due to the inherently variable nature of gene expression. We introduce BLADE (Bayesian Log-normAl Deconvolution), a comprehensive probabilistic framework to estimate both cellular make-up and gene expression profiles of each cell type in each sample. Unlike previous comprehensive statistical approaches, BLADE can handle >20 cell types thanks to the efficient variational inference. Throughout an intensive evaluation using >700 datasets, BLADE showed enhanced robustness against gene expression variability and better completeness than conventional methods, in particular to reconstruct gene expression profiles of each cell type. All-in-all, BLADE is a powerful tool to unravel heterogeneous cellular activity in complex biological systems based on standard bulk gene expression data.

Background: Constructing gene co-expression networks from cancer expression data is important for investigating the genetic mechanisms underlying cancer. However, correlation coefficients or linear regression models are not able to model sophisticated relationships among gene expression profiles. Here, we address the 3-way interaction that 2 genes’ expression levels are clustered in different space locations under the control of a third gene’s expression levels. Results: We present xSyn, a software tool for identifying such 3-way interactions from cancer gene expression data based on an optimization procedure involving the usage of UPGMA (Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean) and synergy. The effectiveness is demonstrated by application to 2 real gene expression data sets. Conclusions: xSyn is a useful tool for decoding the complex relationships among gene expression profiles. xSyn is available at http://www.bdxconsult.com/xSyn.html .

Background: Oral premalignant lesions (OPLs) represent the most common oral precancerous conditions. One of the major challenges in this field is the identification of OPLs at higher risk for oral squamous cell cancer (OSCC) development, by discovering molecular pathways deregulated in the early steps of malignant transformation. Analysis of deregulated levels of single genes and pathways has been successfully applied to head and neck squamous cell cancers (HNSCC) and OSCC with prognostic/predictive implications. Exploiting the availability of gene expression profile and clinical follow-up information of a well-characterized cohort of OPL patients, we aim to dissect tissue OPL gene expression to identify molecular clusters/signatures associated with oral cancer free survival (OCFS). Materials and methods: The gene expression data of 86 OPL patients were challenged with: an HNSCC specific 6 molecular subtypes model (Immune related: HPV related, Defense Response and Immunoreactive; Mesenchymal, Hypoxia and Classical); one OSCC-specific signature (13 genes); two metabolism-related signatures (3 genes and signatures raised from 6 metabolic pathways associated with prognosis in HNSCC and OSCC, respectively); a hypoxia gene signature. The molecular stratification and high versus low expression of the signatures were correlated with OCFS by Kaplan–Meier analyses. The association of gene expression profiles among the tested biological models and clinical covariates was tested through variance partition analysis. Results: Patients with Mesenchymal, Hypoxia and Classical clusters showed an higher risk of malignant transformation in comparison with immune-related ones (log-rank test, p = 0.0052) and they expressed four enriched hallmarks: “TGF beta signaling” “angiogenesis”, “unfolded protein response”, “apical junction”. Overall, 54 cases entered in the immune related clusters, while the remaining 32 cases belonged to the other clusters. No other signatures showed association with OCFS. Our variance partition analysis proved that clinical and molecular features are able to explain only 21% of gene expression data variability, while the remaining 79% refers to residuals independent of known parameters. Conclusions: Applying the existing signatures derived from HNSCC to OPL, we identified only a protective effect for immune-related signatures. Other gene expression profiles derived from overt cancers were not able to identify the risk of malignant transformation, possibly because they are linked to later stages of cancer progression. The availability of a new well-characterized set of OPL patients and further research is needed to improve the identification of adequate prognosticators in OPLs.

A novel biclustering algorithm is proposed in this paper, which can be used to cluster gene expression data. One of the contributions of this paper is a novel and effective residue function of the biclustering algorithm. Furthermore, a new optimal algorithm which is mixed by the parallel genetic algorithm and the particle swarm optimal algorithm is firstly used to the algorithm of the biclustering for gene expression data. we compared our algorithm with traditional genetic algorithm in biclustering. The results reveal that novel proposed algorithms could discover the interesting patterns in the gene expression profiles.

SummaryClustering is an important approach in the analysis of biological data, and often a first step to identify interesting patterns of coexpression in gene expression data. Because of the high complexity and diversity of gene expression data, many genes cannot be easily assigned to a cluster, but even if the dissimilarity of these genes with all other gene groups is large, they will finally be forced to become member of a cluster. In this paper we show how to detect such elements, called unstable elements. We have developed an approach for iterative clustering algorithms in which unstable elements are deleted, making the iterative algorithm less dependent on initial centers. Although the approach is unsupervised, it is less likely that the clusters into which the reduced data set is subdivided contain false positives. This clustering yields a more differentiated approach for biological data, since the cluster analysis is divided into two parts: the pruned data set is divided into highly consistent clusters in an unsupervised way and the removed, unstable elements for which no meaningful cluster exists in unsupervised terms can be given a cluster with the use of biological knowledge and information about the likelihood of cluster membership. We illustrate our framework on both an artificial and real biological data set.
