A general framework for integrative analysis of incomplete multiomics data.

ABSTRACT: There is a tremendous current interest in measuring multiple types of omics features (e.g., DNA sequences, RNA expressions, methylation profiles, metabolic profiles, protein expressions) on a large number of subjects. Although genotypes are typically available for all study subjects, other data types may be measured only on a subset of subjects due to cost or other constraints. In addition, quantitative omics measurements, such as metabolite levels and protein expressions, are subject to detection limits in that the measurements below (or above) certain thresholds are not detectable. In this article, we propose a rigorous and powerful approach to handle missing values and detection limits in integrative analysis of multiomics data. We relate quantitative omics variables to genetic variants and other variables through linear regression models and relate phenotypes to quantitative omics variables and other variables through generalized linear models. We derive the joint-likelihood for the two sets of models by allowing arbitrary patterns of missing values and detection limits for quantitative omics variables. We carry out maximum-likelihood estimation through computationally fast and stable algorithms. The resulting estimators are approximately unbiased and statistically efficient. An application to a major study on chronic obstructive lung disease yielded new biological insights.

A General Framework for Quantile Estimation with Incomplete Data.

Project description:Quantile estimation has attracted significant research interests in recent years. However, there has been only a limited literature on quantile estimation in the presence of incomplete data. In this paper, we propose a general framework to address this problem. Our framework combines the two widely adopted approaches for missing data analysis, the imputation approach and the inverse probability weighting approach, via the empirical likelihood method. The proposed method is capable of dealing with many different missingness settings. We mainly study three of them: (i) estimating the marginal quantile of a response that is subject to missingness while there are fully observed covariates; (ii) estimating the conditional quantile of a fully observed response while the covariates are partially available; and (iii) estimating the conditional quantile of a response that is subject to missingness with fully observed covariates and extra auxiliary variables. The proposed method allows multiple models for both the missingness probability and the data distribution. The resulting estimators are multiply robust in the sense that they are consistent if any one of these models is correctly specified. The asymptotic distributions are established using the empirical process theory.

Identification of an immune classification for cervical cancer and integrative analysis of multiomics data.

Project description:BackgroundTo understand the molecular mechanisms of the antitumour response, we analysed the immune landscape of cervical cancer to identify novel immune molecular classes.MethodsWe established a stable immune molecular classification using a nonnegative matrix factorization algorithm and validated the correlation in two validation sets of 249 samples.ResultsApproximately 78% of cervical cancers (CCs) (228/293) were identified to show significant enrichment in immune cells (e.g., CD8 T cells and macrophages), a type I IFN response, enhanced cytolytic activity and high PDCD1, and these CCs were referred to as the "immune class". We further identified two subtypes of the immune class: active immune and exhausted subtypes. Although the active immune subtype was characterized by enrichment of IFN signatures and better survival, the exhausted subtype expressed activated stroma, a wound healing signature, enhanced M2 macrophages and absence of CD8 T cells and the TGF-β response signature. Integrative analysis of multiomics data identified EGFR, JUN, MYC, FN1 and SERPINE1 as key modulators of the tumour immune microenvironment and potential targets for combination therapies which was validated in two validation sets.ConclusionsOur study introduces a novel immune classification that might predict ideal candidates to receive immunotherapy or specific combination therapies.

Integrative multiomics-histopathology analysis for breast cancer classification.

Project description:Histopathologic evaluation of biopsy slides is a critical step in diagnosing and subtyping breast cancers. However, the connections between histology and multi-omics status have never been systematically explored or interpreted. We developed weakly supervised deep learning models over hematoxylin-and-eosin-stained slides to examine the relations between visual morphological signal, clinical subtyping, gene expression, and mutation status in breast cancer. We first designed fully automated models for tumor detection and pathology subtype classification, with the results validated in independent cohorts (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ≥ 0.950). Using only visual information, our models achieved strong predictive performance in estrogen/progesterone/HER2 receptor status, PAM50 status, and TP53 mutation status. We demonstrated that these models learned lymphocyte-specific morphological signals to identify estrogen receptor status. Examination of the PAM50 cohort revealed a subset of PAM50 genes whose expression reflects cancer morphology. This work demonstrates the utility of deep learning-based image models in both clinical and research regimes, through its ability to uncover connections between visual morphology and genetic statuses.

A general method for elicitation, imputation, and sensitivity analysis for incomplete repeated binary data.

Project description:We develop and demonstrate methods to perform sensitivity analyses to assess sensitivity to plausible departures from missing at random in incomplete repeated binary outcome data. We use multiple imputation in the not at random fully conditional specification framework, which includes one or more sensitivity parameters (SPs) for each incomplete variable. The use of an online elicitation questionnaire is demonstrated to obtain expert opinion on the SPs, and highest prior density regions are used alongside opinion pooling methods to display credible regions for SPs. We demonstrate that substantive conclusions can be far more sensitive to departures from the missing at random assumption (MAR) when control and intervention nonresponders depart from MAR differently, and show that the correlation of arm specific SPs in expert opinion is particularly important. We illustrate these methods on the iQuit in Practice smoking cessation trial, which compared the impact of a tailored text messaging system versus standard care on smoking cessation. We show that conclusions about the effect of intervention on smoking cessation outcomes at 8 week and 6 months are broadly insensitive to departures from MAR, with conclusions significantly affected only when the differences in behavior between the nonresponders in the two trial arms is larger than expert opinion judges to be realistic.

An integrative data analysis platform for gene set analysis and knowledge discovery in a data warehouse framework.

Project description:Data analysis is one of the most critical and challenging steps in drug discovery and disease biology. A user-friendly resource to visualize and analyse high-throughput data provides a powerful medium for both experimental and computational biologists to understand vastly different biological data types and obtain a concise, simplified and meaningful output for better knowledge discovery. We have previously developed TargetMine, an integrated data warehouse optimized for target prioritization. Here we describe how upgraded and newly modelled data types in TargetMine can now survey the wider biological and chemical data space, relevant to drug discovery and development. To enhance the scope of TargetMine from target prioritization to broad-based knowledge discovery, we have also developed a new auxiliary toolkit to assist with data analysis and visualization in TargetMine. This toolkit features interactive data analysis tools to query and analyse the biological data compiled within the TargetMine data warehouse. The enhanced system enables users to discover new hypotheses interactively by performing complicated searches with no programming and obtaining the results in an easy to comprehend output format.

An integrative multiomics framework for identification of therapeutic targets in pulmonary fibrosis [TimeSeries]

Project description:Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a progressive disease with a poor prognosis and lack of effective treatments. Therefore, identifying effective therapeutic modalities is required to improve outcome. However, the lack of predictive progressive disease biomarkers in the clinic causes a significant gap in the preclinical to clinical translational process. Here, we assessed and identified progressive alterations in pulmonary function, transcriptomics, and metabolomics in mice lungs at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after a single dose of oropharyngeal bleomycin. By integrating multi-omics data, we identified two central gene subnetworks associated with multiple critical pathological changes in transcriptomics and metabolomics as well as pulmonary function. We presented a multi-omics-based framework to establish a translational link between the bleomycin-induced PF model in mice and human idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis to identify druggable targets and test therapeutic candidates. Our study also indicated peripheral CB1R antagonism as a rational therapeutic target for clinical translation in PF.

Integrative modeling of multi-platform genomic data under the framework of mediation analysis.

Project description:Given the availability of genomic data, there have been emerging interests in integrating multi-platform data. Here, we propose to model genetics (single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)), epigenetics (DNA methylation), and gene expression data as a biological process to delineate phenotypic traits under the framework of causal mediation modeling. We propose a regression model for the joint effect of SNPs, methylation, gene expression, and their nonlinear interactions on the outcome and develop a variance component score test for any arbitrary set of regression coefficients. The test statistic under the null follows a mixture of chi-square distributions, which can be approximated using a characteristic function inversion method or a perturbation procedure. We construct tests for candidate models determined by different combinations of SNPs, DNA methylation, gene expression, and interactions and further propose an omnibus test to accommodate different models. We then study three path-specific effects: the direct effect of SNPs on the outcome, the effect mediated through expression, and the effect through methylation. We characterize correspondences between the three path-specific effects and coefficients in the regression model, which are influenced by causal relations among SNPs, DNA methylation, and gene expression. We illustrate the utility of our method in two genomic studies and numerical simulation studies.

An integrative multiomics analysis identifies putative causal genes for COVID-19 severity.

Project description:PurposeIt is critical to identify putative causal targets for SARS coronavirus 2, which may guide drug repurposing options to reduce the public health burden of COVID-19.MethodsWe applied complementary methods and multiphased design to pinpoint the most likely causal genes for COVID-19 severity. First, we applied cross-methylome omnibus (CMO) test and leveraged data from the COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative (HGI) comparing 9,986 hospitalized COVID-19 patients and 1,877,672 population controls. Second, we evaluated associations using the complementary S-PrediXcan method and leveraging blood and lung tissue gene expression prediction models. Third, we assessed associations of the identified genes with another COVID-19 phenotype, comparing very severe respiratory confirmed COVID versus population controls. Finally, we applied a fine-mapping method, fine-mapping of gene sets (FOGS), to prioritize putative causal genes.ResultsThrough analyses of the COVID-19 HGI using complementary CMO and S-PrediXcan methods along with fine-mapping, XCR1, CCR2, SACM1L, OAS3, NSF, WNT3, NAPSA, and IFNAR2 are identified as putative causal genes for COVID-19 severity.ConclusionWe identified eight genes at five genomic loci as putative causal genes for COVID-19 severity.
