OmicsNet 2.0: a web-based platform for multi-omics integration and network visual analytics.

ABSTRACT: Researchers are increasingly seeking to interpret molecular data within a multi-omics context to gain a more comprehensive picture of their study system. OmicsNet (www.omicsnet.ca) is a web-based tool developed to allow users to easily build, visualize, and analyze multi-omics networks to study rich relationships among lists of 'omics features of interest. Three major improvements have been introduced in OmicsNet 2.0, which include: (i) enhanced network visual analytics with eleven 2D graph layout options and a novel 3D module layout; (ii) support for three new 'omics types: single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) list from genetic variation studies; taxon list from microbiome profiling studies, as well as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) peaks from untargeted metabolomics; and (iii) measures to improve research reproducibility by coupling R command history with the release of the companion OmicsNetR package, and generation of persistent links to share interactive network views. We performed a case study using the multi-omics data obtained from a recent large-scale investigation on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and demonstrated that OmicsNet was able to quickly create meaningful multi-omics context to facilitate hypothesis generation and mechanistic insights.

HTT-OMNI: A Web-based Platform for Huntingtin Interaction Exploration and Multi-omics Data Integration.

Project description:Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive neurological disorder that is caused by polyglutamine expansion of the huntingtin (HTT) protein. With the hope to uncover key modifiers of disease, a focus of the field of HD research has been on characterizing HTT-interacting proteins (HIPs) and the effect of the HTT polyglutamine expansion on the cellular omics landscape. However, while hundreds of studies have uncovered over 3000 potential HIPs to date, a means to interrogate these complementary interaction and omics datasets does not exist. The lack of a unified platform for exploring this breadth of potential HIPs and associated omics data represents a substantial barrier toward understanding the impact of HTT polyQ expansion and identifying interactions proximal to HD pathogenesis. Here, we describe the development of a web-based platform called HTT-OMNI (HTT OMics and Network Integration). This application facilitates the visualization and exploration of ∼3400 potential HTT interactors (from the HINT database) and their associated polyQ-dependent omics measurements, such as transcriptome and proteome abundances. Additionally, HTT-OMNI allows for the integration of user-generated datasets with existing HIPs and omic measurements. We first demonstrate the utility of HTT-OMNI for filtering existing HTT PPIs based on a variety of experimental metadata parameters, highlighting its capacity to select for HIPs detected in specific model organisms and tissues. Next, we leverage our application to visualize the relationships between HTT PPIs, genetic disease modifiers, and their multiomic landscape. Finally, we generate and analyze a previously unreported dataset of HTT PPIs, aimed at defining tissue-specific HTT interactions and the polyQ-dependent modulation of their relative stabilities in the cortex and striatum of HD mouse models.

Mergeomics 2.0: a web server for multi-omics data integration to elucidate disease networks and predict therapeutics.

Project description:The Mergeomics web server is a flexible online tool for multi-omics data integration to derive biological pathways, networks, and key drivers important to disease pathogenesis and is based on the open source Mergeomics R package. The web server takes summary statistics of multi-omics disease association studies (GWAS, EWAS, TWAS, PWAS, etc.) as input and features four functions: Marker Dependency Filtering (MDF) to correct for known dependency between omics markers, Marker Set Enrichment Analysis (MSEA) to detect disease relevant biological processes, Meta-MSEA to examine the consistency of biological processes informed by various omics datasets, and Key Driver Analysis (KDA) to identify essential regulators of disease-associated pathways and networks. The web server has been extensively updated and streamlined in version 2.0 including an overhauled user interface, improved tutorials and results interpretation for each analytical step, inclusion of numerous disease GWAS, functional genomics datasets, and molecular networks to allow for comprehensive omics integrations, increased functionality to decrease user workload, and increased flexibility to cater to user-specific needs. Finally, we have incorporated our newly developed drug repositioning pipeline PharmOmics for prediction of potential drugs targeting disease processes that were identified by Mergeomics. Mergeomics is freely accessible at http://mergeomics.research.idre.ucla.edu and does not require login.

HTT-OMNI: A Web-based Platform for Huntingtin Interaction Exploration and Multi-omics Data Integration

Project description:We have developed a web-based platform for HTT PPI visualization, exploration, and multi-omic integration called HTT-OMNI. We demonstrate the utility of this platform not only for exploring and filtering existing huntingtin (HTT) PPIs, but also for investigating user-generated omics datasets. For example, we demonstrate the comparison of a published HTT IP-MS experiment, performed in the striatum brain region of a mouse HD model, to unpublished HTT IP-MS experiments in the cortex brain region. Overall, HTT-OMNI summarizes and integrates known HTT PPIs with polyQ-dependent transcriptome and proteome measurements, providing an all-in-one exploratory platform that facilitates the prioritization of target genes that may contribute to HD pathogenesis.

Visual Omics: a web-based platform for omics data analysis and visualization with rich graph-tuning capabilities.

Project description:SummaryWith the continuous development of high-throughput sequencing technology, bioinformatic analysis of omics data plays an increasingly important role in life science research. Many R packages are widely used for omics analysis, such as DESeq2, clusterProfiler and STRINGdb. And some online tools based on them have been developed to free bench scientists from programming with these R packages. However, the charts generated by these tools are usually in a fixed, non-editable format and often fail to clearly demonstrate the details the researchers intend to express. To address these issues, we have created Visual Omics, an online tool for omics data analysis and scientific chart editing. Visual Omics integrates multiple omics analyses which include differential expression analysis, enrichment analysis, protein domain prediction and protein-protein interaction analysis with extensive graph presentations. It can also independently plot and customize basic charts that are involved in omics analysis, such as various PCA/PCoA plots, bar plots, box plots, heat maps, set intersection diagrams, bubble charts and volcano plots. A distinguishing feature of Visual Omics is that it allows users to perform one-stop omics data analyses without programming, iteratively explore the form and layout of graphs online and fine-tune parameters to generate charts that meet publication requirements.Availability and implementationVisual Omics can be used at http://bioinfo.ihb.ac.cn/visomics.

Panomicon: A web-based environment for interactive, visual analysis of multi-omics data.

Project description:Multi-omics analyses, combining transcriptomics, genomics, proteomics, and so on, have led to important insights in many areas of biology and medicine. To support these analyses, software that can handle the difficulties associated with multi-omics datasets is crucial. Here, we describe Panomicon, a web-based, interactive analysis environment for multi-omics data. Building on Toxygates, a tool previously created to study single-omics data that features interactive clustering, heatmaps, and user data uploads, Panomicon introduces improvements for the storage and handling of additional omics types, as well as tools for the generation and visualization of interaction networks between different types of omics data. Panomicon is a new type of environment for the collaborative study of multi-omics data, both for users uploading data to our server and for groups wishing to host their own deployment of Panomicon. We demonstrate Panomicon's capabilities by revisiting a microRNA-mRNA interaction networks study in a non-small cell lung cancer dataset.

Network-based integration of multi-omics data for prioritizing cancer genes.

Project description:Motivation:Several molecular events are known to be cancer-related, including genomic aberrations, hypermethylation of gene promoter regions and differential expression of microRNAs. These aberration events are very heterogeneous across tumors and it is poorly understood how they affect the molecular makeup of the cell, including the transcriptome and proteome. Protein interaction networks can help decode the functional relationship between aberration events and changes in gene and protein expression. Results:We developed NetICS (Network-based Integration of Multi-omics Data), a new graph diffusion-based method for prioritizing cancer genes by integrating diverse molecular data types on a directed functional interaction network. NetICS prioritizes genes by their mediator effect, defined as the proximity of the gene to upstream aberration events and to downstream differentially expressed genes and proteins in an interaction network. Genes are prioritized for individual samples separately and integrated using a robust rank aggregation technique. NetICS provides a comprehensive computational framework that can aid in explaining the heterogeneity of aberration events by their functional convergence to common differentially expressed genes and proteins. We demonstrate NetICS' competitive performance in predicting known cancer genes and in generating robust gene lists using TCGA data from five cancer types. Availability and implementation:NetICS is available at https://github.com/cbg-ethz/netics. Supplementary information:Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Elucidating Human Milk Oligosaccharide biosynthetic genes through network-based multi-omics integration.

Project description:Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs) are abundant carbohydrates fundamental to infant health and development. Although these oligosaccharides were discovered more than half a century ago, their biosynthesis in the mammary gland remains largely uncharacterized. Here, we use a systems biology framework that integrates glycan and RNA expression data to construct an HMO biosynthetic network and predict glycosyltransferases involved. To accomplish this, we construct models describing the most likely pathways for the synthesis of the oligosaccharides accounting for >95% of the HMO content in human milk. Through our models, we propose candidate genes for elongation, branching, fucosylation, and sialylation of HMOs. Our model aggregation approach recovers 2 of 2 previously known gene-enzyme relations and 2 of 3 empirically confirmed gene-enzyme relations. The top genes we propose for the remaining 5 linkage reactions are consistent with previously published literature. These results provide the molecular basis of HMO biosynthesis necessary to guide progress in HMO research and application with the goal of understanding and improving infant health and development.

Multi-omics data integration by generative adversarial network.

Project description:MotivationAccurate disease phenotype prediction plays an important role in the treatment of heterogeneous diseases like cancer in the era of precision medicine. With the advent of high throughput technologies, more comprehensive multi-omics data is now available that can effectively link the genotype to phenotype. However, the interactive relation of multi-omics datasets makes it particularly challenging to incorporate different biological layers to discover the coherent biological signatures and predict phenotypic outcomes. In this study, we introduce omicsGAN, a generative adversarial network model to integrate two omics data and their interaction network. The model captures information from the interaction network as well as the two omics datasets and fuse them to generate synthetic data with better predictive signals.ResultsLarge-scale experiments on The Cancer Genome Atlas breast cancer, lung cancer and ovarian cancer datasets validate that (i) the model can effectively integrate two omics data (e.g. mRNA and microRNA expression data) and their interaction network (e.g. microRNA-mRNA interaction network). The synthetic omics data generated by the proposed model has a better performance on cancer outcome classification and patients survival prediction compared to original omics datasets. (ii) The integrity of the interaction network plays a vital role in the generation of synthetic data with higher predictive quality. Using a random interaction network does not allow the framework to learn meaningful information from the omics datasets; therefore, results in synthetic data with weaker predictive signals.Availability and implementationSource code is available at: https://github.com/CompbioLabUCF/omicsGAN.Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Optimizing network propagation for multi-omics data integration.

Project description:Network propagation refers to a class of algorithms that integrate information from input data across connected nodes in a given network. These algorithms have wide applications in systems biology, protein function prediction, inferring condition-specifically altered sub-networks, and prioritizing disease genes. Despite the popularity of network propagation, there is a lack of comparative analyses of different algorithms on real data and little guidance on how to select and parameterize the various algorithms. Here, we address this problem by analyzing different combinations of network normalization and propagation methods and by demonstrating schemes for the identification of optimal parameter settings on real proteome and transcriptome data. Our work highlights the risk of a 'topology bias' caused by the incorrect use of network normalization approaches. Capitalizing on the fact that network propagation is a regularization approach, we show that minimizing the bias-variance tradeoff can be utilized for selecting optimal parameters. The application to real multi-omics data demonstrated that optimal parameters could also be obtained by either maximizing the agreement between different omics layers (e.g. proteome and transcriptome) or by maximizing the consistency between biological replicates. Furthermore, we exemplified the utility and robustness of network propagation on multi-omics datasets for identifying ageing-associated genes in brain and liver tissues of rats and for elucidating molecular mechanisms underlying prostate cancer progression. Overall, this work compares different network propagation approaches and it presents strategies for how to use network propagation algorithms to optimally address a specific research question at hand.
