Detecting single-nucleotide polymorphism by single-nucleotide polymorphism interactions in rheumatoid arthritis using a two-step approach with machine learning and a Bayesian threshold least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) model.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to detect interactions between relevant single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Data from Problem 1 of the Genetic Analysis Workshop 16 were used. These data consisted of 868 cases and 1,194 controls genotyped with the 500 k Illumina chip. First, machine learning methods were applied for preselecting SNPs. One hundred SNPs outside the HLA region and 1,500 SNPs in the HLA region were preselected using information-gain theory. The software weka was used to reduce colinearity and redundancy in the HLA region, resulting in a subset of 6 SNPs out of 1,500. In a second step, a parametric approach to account for interactions between SNPs in the HLA region, as well as HLA-nonHLA interactions was conducted using a Bayesian threshold least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) model incorporating 2,560 covariates. This approach detected some main and interaction effects for SNPs in genes that have previously been associated with RA (e.g., rs2395175, rs660895, rs10484560, and rs2476601). Further, some other SNPs detected in this study may be considered in candidate gene studies.

Project description:BackgroundKawasaki disease (KD) is a febrile systemic vasculitis involvingchildren younger than five years old. However, the specific biomarkers and precise mechanisms of this disease are not fully understood, which can delay the best treatment time, hence, this study aimed to detect the potential biomarkers and pathophysiological process of KD through bioinformatic analysis.MethodsThe Gene Expression Omnibus database (GEO) was the source of the RNA sequencing data from KD patients. Differential expressed genes (DEGs) were screened between KD patients and healthy controls (HCs) with the "limma" R package. Weighted gene correlation network analysis (WGCNA) was performed to discover the most corresponding module and hub genes of KD. The node genes were obtained by the combination of the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model with the top 5 genes from five algorithms in CytoHubba, which were further validated with the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve). CIBERSORTx was employed to discover the constitution of immune cells in KDs and HCs. Functional enrichment analysis was performed to understand the biological implications of the modular genes. Finally, competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) networks of node genes were predicted using online databases.ResultsA total of 267 DEGs were analyzed between 153 KD patients and 92 HCs in the training set, spanning two modules according to WGCNA. The turquoise module was identified as the hub module, which was mainly enriched in cell activation involved in immune response, myeloid leukocyte activation, myeloid leukocyte mediated immunity, secretion and leukocyte mediated immunity biological processes; included type II diabetes mellitus, nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism, O-glycan biosynthesis, glycerolipid and glutathione metabolism pathways. The node genes included ADM, ALPL, HK3, MMP9 and S100A12, and there was good performance in the validation studies. Immune cell infiltration analysis revealed that gamma delta T cells, monocytes, M0 macrophage, activated dendritic cells, activated mast cells and neutrophils were elevated in KD patients. Regarding the ceRNA networks, three intact networks were constructed: NEAT1/NORAD/XIST-hsa-miR-524-5p-ADM, NEAT1/NORAD/XIST-hsa-miR-204-5p-ALPL, NEAT1/NORAD/XIST-hsa-miR-524-5p/hsa-miR-204-5p-MMP9.ConclusionTo conclude, the five-gene signature and three ceRNA networks constructed in our study are of great value in the early diagnosis of KD and might help to elucidate our understanding of KD at the RNA regulatory level.

Project description:Objective: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a heart disease with high mortality characterized by progressive cardiac dilation and myocardial contractility reduction. The molecular signature of dilated cardiomyopathy remains to be defined. Hence, seeking potential biomarkers and therapeutic of DCM is urgent and necessary. Methods: In this study, we utilized the Robust Rank Aggregation (RRA) method to integrate four eligible DCM microarray datasets from the GEO and identified a set of significant differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between dilated cardiomyopathy and non-heart failure. Moreover, LASSO analysis was carried out to clarify the diagnostic and DCM clinical features of these genes and identify dilated cardiomyopathy derived diagnostic signatures (DCMDDS). Results: A total of 117 DEGs were identified across the four microarrays. Furthermore, GO analysis demonstrated that these DEGs were mainly enriched in the regulation of inflammatory response, the humoral immune response, the regulation of blood pressure and collagen-containing extracellular matrix. In addition, KEGG analysis revealed that DEGs were mainly enriched in diverse infected signaling pathways. Moreover, Gene set enrichment analysis revealed that immune and inflammatory biological processes such as adaptive immune response, cellular response to interferon and cardiac muscle contraction, dilated cardiomyopathy are significantly enriched in DCM. Moreover, Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analyses of the 18 DCM-related genes developed a 7-gene signature predictive of DCM. This signature included ANKRD1, COL1A1, MYH6, PERELP, PRKACA, CDKN1A, and OMD. Interestingly, five of these seven genes have a correlation with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in DCM patients. Conclusion: Our present study demonstrated that the signatures could be robust tools for predicting DCM in clinical practice. And may also be potential treatment targets for clinical implication in the future.
