Analyzing microarray data of Alzheimer's using cluster analysis to identify the biomarker genes.

ABSTRACT: Alzheimer is characterized by the presence of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in cortical regions of the brain. The experimental data is taken from Gene Expression Omnibus. A hierarchical Cluster analysis and TreeView were performed to group genes on the basis of the expression pattern. The dynamic change of expression over time and diverse patterns of expression support the concept of a complex local milieu. TreeView allows the organized data to be visualized. List of 24 genes were obtained which showed high expression levels. Three genes, SORL1, APP, and APOE, are suspected to cause Alzheimer's whereas the other 21 genes are related to other diseases but may also be found to be associated with Alzheimer's, and these are TMEM59, CCT4, IGF2R, SFPQ, PRDX3, RNF14, IDS, SSBP1, SYNE2, TXNL4A, STXBP3, SMARCB1, ULK2, AGTPBP1, FABP7, CALB1, H2AFY, COPA, SAP18, ATIC and SYNCRIP.

Identification of Biomarker for Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Using Microarray Data Analysis.

Project description:Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is one of the most malignant tumors worldwide. We aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of this CSCC and screen feature genes that can function as the biomarker of CSCC and thus provide a theoretical basis for the pathogenesis research and development of medicine. The method of microarray data analysis was used in this study to explore the differentially expressed genes between tissues of normal specimens and tissues of patients with CSCC. Besides, functional enrichment analysis and signal pathway were performed on these genes to screen the feature genes that are closely associated with CSCC can function as the potential biomarkers of CSCC.A total of 53 samples from two datasets, GSE45216 and GSE45164, were used in the differentially expressed analysis. And as a result, a total of 833 genes were screened out, including 465 up-regulated genes and 215 down-regulated genes. Candidate genes, including up-regulated genes like S100A12, MMP1, DEFB4B/DEFB4A, KRT16 and PI3, and down-regulated genes like EGR3, LRP4, C14orf132, PAMR1, CCL27, and KRT2 were screened out. All these genes were testified in the dataset of GSE66359. The result showed that only three genes, KRT16, PI3 and EGR3, were mostly differentially expressed and only EGR3 had the same expression pattern with both datasets, GSE45216 and GSE45164.Of note, EGR3 gene was found to be the most differentially expressed gene in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, which had the potential to function as the candidate genes and help in the diagnosis and prognostic treatments of CSCC.

Microarray data analysis to identify differentially expressed genes and biological pathways associated with asthma.

Project description:The present study aimed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and biological processes (BPs) associated with asthma. DEGs between allergic asthma and healthy controls were screened from GSE15823. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses were performed using Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery. A protein-protein interaction network was constructed, followed by module mining and functional analysis. Additionally, GSE41649 was downloaded to validate the reliability of the results. In GSE41649, DEGs were identified and compared with key DEGs identified in GSE15823. A total of 43 upregulated and 275 downregulated DEGs were obtained from GSE15823. Upregulated DEGs, such as nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2), were enriched in BPs related to oxidation reduction. Downregulated DEGs, such as chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 19 (CCL21) and Cys-X-Cys ligand (CXCL9), were enriched in immune response-related BPs. Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C (PTPRC), CCL21, and CXCL9 were identified as hub genes. The DEGs in module 1 were significantly involved in the chemokine signaling pathway (P<0.05). The expression of the key genes obtained in GSE15823 demonstrated the same variation directions in the two datasets. The immune response, oxidants and nitric oxide metabolic pathways may have important roles in the progression of asthma. DEGs of PTPRC, CCL21, CXCL9 and NOS2 may be the potential targets for asthma diagnosis and treatment.

Gene Expression Microarray Data Identify Hub Genes Involved in Osteoarthritis.

Project description:The present study was performed to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms and screen hub genes of osteoarthritis (OA) via bioinformatics analysis. In total, twenty-five OA synovial tissue samples and 25 normal synovial tissue samples were derived from three datasets, namely, GSE55457, GSE55235, and GSE1919, and were used to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of OA by R language. The Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis of DEGs were conducted using the Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery (DAVID). A Venn diagram was built to show the potential hub genes identified in all three datasets. The STRING database was used for constructing the protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks and submodules of DEGs. We identified 507 upregulated and 620 downregulated genes. Upregulated DEGs were significantly involved in immune response, MHC class II receptor activity, and presented in the extracellular region, while downregulated DEGs were mainly enriched in response to organic substances, extracellular region parts, and cadmium ion binding. Results of KEGG analysis indicated that the upregulated DEGs mainly existed in cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), while downregulated DEGs were significantly involved in the MAPK signaling pathway. A total of eighteen intersection genes were identified across the three datasets. These include Nell-1, ATF3, RhoB, STC1, and VEGFA. In addition, 10 hub genes including CXCL12, CXCL8, CCL20, and CCL4 were found in the PPI network and module construction. Identification of DEGs and hub genes associated with OA may be helpful for revealing the molecular mechanisms of OA and further promotes the development of relevant biomarkers and drug targets.

Biomarker identification of thyroid associated ophthalmopathy using microarray data.

Project description:AIM:To uncover the underlying pathogenesis of thyroid associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) and explore potential biomarkers of this disease. METHODS:The expression profile GSE9340, which was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database, included 18 specimens from 10 TAO patients and 8 hyperthyroidism patients without ophthalmopathy. The platform was HumanRef-8 v2 Expression BeadChip. Raw data were normalized using preprocess. Core package and the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified based on t-test with limma package of R. Functional enrichment analyses were performed recruiting the DAVID tool. Based on STRING database, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed, from which a module was extracted. The functional enrichment for genes in the module was performed by the BinGO plugin. RESULTS:In total, 861 DEGs (433 up-regulated and 428 down-regulated) between TAO patients and hyperthyroidism patients without ophthalmopathy were identified. Crucial nodes in the PPI network included TPX2, CDCA5, PRC1, KIF23 and MKI67, which were also remarkable in the module and all enriched in cell cycle process. Additionally, MKI67 was highly correlated with TAO. Besides, the DEGs of GTF2F1, SMC3, USF1 and ZNF263 were predicted as transcription factors (TFs). CONCLUSION:Several crucial genes are identified such as TPX2, CDCA5, PRC1 and KIF23, which all might play significant roles in TAO via the regulation of cell cycle process. Regulatory relationships between TPX2 and CDCA5 as well as between PRC1 and KIF23 may exist. Additionally, MKI67 may be a potent biomarker of TAO, and SMC3 and ZNF263 may exert their roles as TFs in TAO progression.

Microarray data analysis to identify crucial genes regulated by CEBPB in human SNB19 glioma cells.

Project description:Glioma is one of the most common primary malignancies in the brain or spine. The transcription factor (TF) CCAAT/enhancer binding protein beta (CEBPB) is important for maintaining the tumor initiating capacity and invasion ability. To investigate the regulation mechanism of CEBPB in glioma, microarray data GSE47352 was analyzed.GSE47352 was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus, including three samples of SNB19 human glioma cells transduced with non-target control small hairpin RNA (shRNA) lentiviral vectors for 72 h (normal glioma cells) and three samples of SNB19 human glioma cells transduced with CEBPB shRNA lentiviral vectors for 72 h (CEBPB-silenced glioma cells). The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened using limma package and then annotated. Afterwards, the Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) software was applied to perform enrichment analysis for the DEGs. Furthermore, the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and transcriptional regulatory network were constructed using Cytoscape software.Total 529 DEGs were identified in the normal glioma cells compared with the CEBPB-silenced glioma cells, including 336 up-regulated and 193 down-regulated genes. The significantly enriched pathways included chemokine signaling pathway (which involved CCL2), focal adhesion (which involved THBS1 and THBS2), TGF-beta signaling pathway (which involved THBS1, THBS2, SMAD5, and SMAD6) and chronic myeloid leukemia (which involved TGFBR2 and CCND1). In the PPI network, CCND1 (degree?=?29) and CCL2 (degree?=?12) were hub nodes. Additionally, CEBPB and TCF12 might function in glioma through targeting others (CEBPB???TCF12, CEBPB???TGFBR2, and TCF12???TGFBR2).CEBPB might act in glioma by regulating CCL2, CCND1, THBS1, THBS2, SMAD5, SMAD6, TGFBR2, and TCF12.

Principal components analysis based methodology to identify differentially expressed genes in time-course microarray data.

Project description:BackgroundTime-course microarray experiments are being increasingly used to characterize dynamic biological processes. In these experiments, the goal is to identify genes differentially expressed in time-course data, measured between different biological conditions. These differentially expressed genes can reveal the changes in biological process due to the change in condition which is essential to understand differences in dynamics.ResultsIn this paper, we propose a novel method for finding differentially expressed genes in time-course data and across biological conditions (say C1 and C2). We model the expression at C1 using Principal Component Analysis and represent the expression profile of each gene as a linear combination of the dominant Principal Components (PCs). Then the expression data from C2 is projected on the developed PCA model and scores are extracted. The difference between the scores is evaluated using a hypothesis test to quantify the significance of differential expression. We evaluate the proposed method to understand differences in two case studies (1) the heat shock response of wild-type and HSF1 knockout mice, and (2) cell-cycle between wild-type and Fkh1/Fkh2 knockout Yeast strains.ConclusionIn both cases, the proposed method identified biologically significant genes.

Integrated analysis of microarray data to identify the genes critical for the rupture of intracranial aneurysm.

Project description:Intracranial aneurysm (IA) is a localized dilation of the blood vessel. The present study was designed to explore the mechanisms of rupture of IA. GSE13353 (including 11 ruptured and 8 unruptured IA samples) and GSE15629 (including 8 ruptured and 6 unruptured IA samples) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identified using limma and MetaDE packages were merged, and a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis was performed using Cytoscape software. Pathway enrichment analysis was performed for the nodes of the PPI network using the fisher algorithm. The 100 most prominent genes in the network were designated candidate genes and a hierarchical clustering analysis was performed. The tune.svm function of e1071 package was used to construct a support vector machine (SVM) classifier, and the Candidate Cancer Gene Database was applied to analyze the characterization of gene-associated cancer. Furthermore, the genes involved in the SVM classifier were assessed via principal component analysis (PCA). In the ruptured samples, 1,292 DEGs and 1,029 DEGs separately were identified by limma and MetaDE packages. The 100 most prominent genes in the network included fibronectin 1 (FN1), amyloid β (A4) precursor protein (APP), nuclear RNA export factor 1 (NXF1) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). Pathway enrichment analysis identified that toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) was enriched in the Toll-like receptor signaling pathway. A total of 15 genes (including FN1) were used to construct the SVM classifier. NXF1 was identified to be associated with Nervous System Cancer. PCA revealed that APP, NXF1 and STAT3 were the 3 principal components. TLR3, FN1, APP, NXF1 and STAT3 may affect the rupture of IA.

Analyzing microarray data with transitive directed acyclic graphs.

Project description:Post hoc assignment of patterns determined by all pairwise comparisons in microarray experiments with multiple treatments has been proven to be useful in assessing treatment effects. We propose the usage of transitive directed acyclic graphs (tDAG) as the representation of these patterns and show that such representation can be useful in clustering treatment effects, annotating existing clustering methods, and analyzing sample sizes. Advantages of this approach include: (1) unique and descriptive meaning of each cluster in terms of how genes respond to all pairs of treatments; (2) insensitivity of the observed patterns to the number of genes analyzed; and (3) a combinatorial perspective to address the sample size problem by observing the rate of contractible tDAG as the number of replicates increases. The advantages and overall utility of the method in elaborating drug structure activity relationships are exemplified in a controlled study with real and simulated data.

Effective feature selection framework for cluster analysis of microarray data.

Project description:The microarray technique has become a standard means in simultaneously examining expression of all genes measured in different circumstances. As microarray data are typically characterized by high dimensional features with a small number of samples, feature selection needs to be incorporated to identify a subset of genes that are meaningful for biological interpretation and accountable for the sample variation. In this article, we present a simple, yet effective feature selection framework suitable for two-dimensional microarray data. Our correlation-based, nonparametric approach allows compact representation of class-specific properties with a small number of genes. We evaluated our method using publicly available experimental data and obtained favorable results.

Using a gene expression biomarker to identify DNA damage-inducing agents in microarray profiles.

Project description:High-throughput transcriptomic technologies are increasingly being used to screen environmental chemicals in vitro to provide mechanistic context for regulatory testing. The TGx-DDI biomarker is a 64-gene expression profile generated from testing 28 model chemicals or treatments (13 that cause DNA damage and 15 that do not) in human TK6 cells. While the biomarker is very accurate at predicting DNA damage inducing (DDI) potential using the nearest shrunken centroid method, the broad utility of the biomarker using other computational methods is not fully known. Here, we determined the accuracy of the biomarker used with the Running Fisher test, a nonparametric correlation test. In TK6 cells, the methods could readily differentiate DDI and non-DDI compounds with balanced accuracies of 87-97%, depending on the threshold for determining DDI positives. The methods identified DDI agents in the metabolically competent hepatocyte cell line HepaRG (accuracy = 90%) but not in HepG2 cells or hepatocytes derived from embryonic stem cells (60 and 80%, respectively). DDI was also accurately classified when the gene expression changes were derived using the nCounter technology (accuracy = 89%). In addition, we found: (1) not all genes contributed equally to the correlations; (2) the minimal overlap in genes between the biomarker and the individual comparisons required for significant positive correlation was 10 genes, but usually was much higher; and (3) different sets of genes in the biomarker can by themselves contribute to the significant correlations. Overall, these results demonstrate the utility of the biomarker to accurately classify DDI agents. Environ. Mol. Mutagen. 59:772-784, 2018. Published 2018. This article is a U.S. Government work and is in the public domain in the USA.
