BingleSeq: a user-friendly R package for bulk and single-cell RNA-Seq data analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

RNA sequencing is an indispensable research tool used in a broad range of transcriptome analysis studies. The most common application of RNA Sequencing is differential expression analysis and it is used to determine genetic loci with distinct expression across different conditions. An emerging field called single-cell RNA sequencing is used for transcriptome profiling at the individual cell level. The standard protocols for both of these approaches include the processing of sequencing libraries and result in the generation of count matrices. An obstacle to these analyses and the acquisition of meaningful results is that they require programing expertise. Although some effort has been directed toward the development of user-friendly RNA-Seq analysis analysis tools, few have the flexibility to explore both Bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing.

Implementation

BingleSeq was developed as an intuitive application that provides a user-friendly solution for the analysis of count matrices produced by both Bulk and Single-cell RNA-Seq experiments. This was achieved by building an interactive dashboard-like user interface which incorporates three state-of-the-art software packages for each type of the aforementioned analyses. Furthermore, BingleSeq includes additional features such as visualization techniques, extensive functional annotation analysis and rank-based consensus for differential gene analysis results. As a result, BingleSeq puts some of the best reviewed and most widely used packages and tools for RNA-Seq analyses at the fingertips of biologists with no programing experience.

Project description:Quantifying or labeling the sample type with high quality is a challenging task, which is a key step for understanding complex diseases. Reducing noise pollution to data and ensuring the extracted intrinsic patterns in concordance with the primary data structure are important in sample clustering and classification. Here we propose an effective data integration framework named as HCI (High-order Correlation Integration), which takes an advantage of high-order correlation matrix incorporated with pattern fusion analysis (PFA), to realize high-dimensional data feature extraction. On the one hand, the high-order Pearson's correlation coefficient can highlight the latent patterns underlying noisy input datasets and thus improve the accuracy and robustness of the algorithms currently available for sample clustering. On the other hand, the PFA can identify intrinsic sample patterns efficiently from different input matrices by optimally adjusting the signal effects. To validate the effectiveness of our new method, we firstly applied HCI on four single-cell RNA-seq datasets to distinguish the cell types, and we found that HCI is capable of identifying the prior-known cell types of single-cell samples from scRNA-seq data with higher accuracy and robustness than other methods under different conditions. Secondly, we also integrated heterogonous omics data from TCGA datasets and GEO datasets including bulk RNA-seq data, which outperformed the other methods at identifying distinct cancer subtypes. Within an additional case study, we also constructed the mRNA-miRNA regulatory network of colorectal cancer based on the feature weight estimated from HCI, where the differentially expressed mRNAs and miRNAs were significantly enriched in well-known functional sets of colorectal cancer, such as KEGG pathways and IPA disease annotations. All these results supported that HCI has extensive flexibility and applicability on sample clustering with different types and organizations of RNA-seq data.
