Book Systems Analytics and Integration of Big Omics Data

Download or read book Systems Analytics and Integration of Big Omics Data written by Gary Hardiman and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “genotype" is essentially an organism's full hereditary information which is obtained from its parents. A "phenotype" is an organism's actual observed physical and behavioral properties. These may include traits such as morphology, size, height, eye color, metabolism, etc. One of the pressing challenges in computational and systems biology is genotype-to-phenotype prediction. This is challenging given the amount of data generated by modern Omics technologies. This “Big Data” is so large and complex that traditional data processing applications are not up to the task. Challenges arise in collection, analysis, mining, sharing, transfer, visualization, archiving, and integration of these data. In this Special Issue, there is a focus on the systems-level analysis of Omics data, recent developments in gene ontology annotation, and advances in biological pathways and network biology. The integration of Omics data with clinical and biomedical data using machine learning is explored. This Special Issue covers new methodologies in the context of gene–environment interactions, tissue-specific gene expression, and how external factors or host genetics impact the microbiome.

Book Multi omic Data Integration

Download or read book Multi omic Data Integration written by Paolo Tieri and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2015-09-17 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stable, predictive biomarkers and interpretable disease signatures are seen as a significant step towards personalized medicine. In this perspective, integration of multi-omic data coming from genomics, transcriptomics, glycomics, proteomics, metabolomics is a powerful strategy to reconstruct and analyse complex multi-dimensional interactions, enabling deeper mechanistic and medical insight. At the same time, there is a rising concern that much of such different omic data –although often publicly and freely available- lie in databases and repositories underutilised or not used at all. Issues coming from lack of standardisation and shared biological identities are also well-known. From these considerations, a novel, pressing request arises from the life sciences to design methodologies and approaches that allow for these data to be interpreted as a whole, i.e. as intertwined molecular signatures containing genes, proteins, mRNAs and miRNAs, able to capture inter-layers connections and complexity. Papers discuss data integration approaches and methods of several types and extents, their application in understanding the pathogenesis of specific diseases or in identifying candidate biomarkers to exploit the full benefit of multi-omic datasets and their intrinsic information content. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Methods for the integration of layered data, including, but not limited to, genomics, transcriptomics, glycomics, proteomics, metabolomics; • Application of multi-omic data integration approaches for diagnostic biomarker discovery in any field of the life sciences; • Innovative approaches for the analysis and the visualization of multi-omic datasets; • Methods and applications for systematic measurements from single/undivided samples (comprising genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic measurements, among others); • Multi-scale approaches for integrated dynamic modelling and simulation; • Implementation of applications, computational resources and repositories devoted to data integration including, but not limited to, data warehousing, database federation, semantic integration, service-oriented and/or wiki integration; • Issues related to the definition and implementation of standards, shared identities and semantics, with particular focus on the integration problem. Research papers, reviews and short communications on all topics related to the above issues were welcomed.

Book Computational Methods for Multi Omics Data Analysis in Cancer Precision Medicine

Download or read book Computational Methods for Multi Omics Data Analysis in Cancer Precision Medicine written by Ehsan Nazemalhosseini-Mojarad and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-08-02 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer is a complex and heterogeneous disease often caused by different alterations. The development of human cancer is due to the accumulation of genetic and epigenetic modifications that could affect the structure and function of the genome. High-throughput methods (e.g., microarray and next-generation sequencing) can investigate a tumor at multiple levels: i) DNA with genome-wide association studies (GWAS), ii) epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation, histone changes and microRNAs (miRNAs) iii) mRNA. The availability of public datasets from different multi-omics data has been growing rapidly and could facilitate better knowledge of the biological processes of cancer. Computational approaches are essential for the analysis of big data and the identification of potential biomarkers for early and differential diagnosis, and prognosis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The manifestations of cancerous phenotypes necessitate alterations at different levelsof information-flow from genome to proteome. The molecular alterations at differentinformation processing levels serve as the basis for the cancer phenotype to emerge. Tounderstand the underlying mechanisms that drive the acquisition of cancer hallmarks it isrequired to interrogate cancer cells using multiple levels of information flow representedby different omics - such as genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics.The advantage of multi-omics data integration comes with a trade-off in the form of anadded layer of complexity originating from inherently diverse types of omics-datasetsthat may pose a challenge to integrate the omics-data in a biologically meaningfulmanner. The plethora of cancer-specific online omics-data resources, if able to beintegrated efficiently and systematically, may facilitate the generation of new biologicalinsights for cancer research. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overviewof the online single- and multi-omics resources that are dedicated to cancer. Wecatalog various online omics-data resources such as The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)along with various TCGA-associated data portals and tools for multi-omics analysisand visualization, the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC), Catalogueof Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC), The Pathology Atlas, Gene ExpressionOmnibus (GEO), and PRoteomics IDEntifications (PRIDE). By comparing the strengthsand limitations of the respective online resources, we aim to highlight the currentbiological and technological challenges and possible strategies to overcome thesechallenges. We outline the available schemes for the integration of the multi-omicsdimensions for stratifying cancer patients and biomarker prediction based on theintegrated molecular-signatures of cancer. Finally, we propose the multi-omics drivensystems-biology approaches to realize the potential of precision onco-medicine as the uture of cancer research. We believe this systematic review will encourage scientistsand clinicians worldwide to utilize the online resources to explore and integrate theavailable omics datasets that may provide a window of opportunity to generate newbiological insights and contribute to the advancement of the field of cancer research

Book Integrative Multi omics Analysis to Understand Cancer and Anticancer Therapy

Download or read book Integrative Multi omics Analysis to Understand Cancer and Anticancer Therapy written by Michelle Ting Dow and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Precision cancer medicine promises better treatments to a disease as complex and heterogenous as cancer. Many anti-cancer therapies are beneficial to only a subset of patients due to the variability in patient genetic and tumor heterogeneity. Thus, we need better frameworks for understanding underlying genomic and transcriptomic patterns influencing differential patient outcomes, yet our understanding of how genetic alterations connect to treatment in in vivo and in vitro models remains understudied. To address this gap, I utilized human patient data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) models, prostate cancer (PCa) models, and chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cell lines. Through the integration of multi-omic data, I identified parallel features of human and model organism data that could reveal disease specific characteristics. Additionally, I characterized the landscape of acquired resistance for a panel of chemotherapeutic treatments and revealed potential alleles and genes that mediate the process. The analyses I conducted expose the role of genetic information and suggest future applications for development of precision medicine.

Book Evolution of Translational Omics

Download or read book Evolution of Translational Omics written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-09-13 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technologies collectively called omics enable simultaneous measurement of an enormous number of biomolecules; for example, genomics investigates thousands of DNA sequences, and proteomics examines large numbers of proteins. Scientists are using these technologies to develop innovative tests to detect disease and to predict a patient's likelihood of responding to specific drugs. Following a recent case involving premature use of omics-based tests in cancer clinical trials at Duke University, the NCI requested that the IOM establish a committee to recommend ways to strengthen omics-based test development and evaluation. This report identifies best practices to enhance development, evaluation, and translation of omics-based tests while simultaneously reinforcing steps to ensure that these tests are appropriately assessed for scientific validity before they are used to guide patient treatment in clinical trials.

Book Leveraging Multi omics Integration to Characterize Human Cancer

Download or read book Leveraging Multi omics Integration to Characterize Human Cancer written by Akshay Sanghi and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Omic technologies have been applied to cancer since they were invented and have yielded extremely powerful results. Common tumor types have been profiled extensively for their cancer drivers and genetic landscapes, identifying the extent of to which mutations alter the gene expression in cancer. However, other molecular features have not been comprehensively studied. As omic technologies become more widely available and more accurate, the unprofiled molecular landscape of cancer is ripe for investigation. This dissertation focuses on scientific investigations that utilize state-of-the-art omic tools to characterize the molecular phenotypes in human cancers. In addition, this dissertation addresses the topic of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and shares results from a program that I founded for Stanford Biosciences and the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP). The first chapter provides an overview of gene regulation studies based on multi-omics methodology, current molecular knowledge of thyroid cancer, and the state of DEI in biomedical graduate training programs. Chapter 2 clarifies mechanisms in which chromatin regulation affects protein-transcript correlation in progression and development of thyroid and breast cancer. It points to an interesting mechanism by which transcription factors mediate coordinated transcription and translation. Chapter 3 outlines the preliminary findings from a multi-omic analysis of genotype, chromatin regulatory landscape, transcripts, and proteins in metastatic thyroid cancer. This analysis classifies tumors and metastases according to regulons that have direct and indirect effects on the comprehensive profile of biomolecules. Chapter 4 describes an approach to a diversity recruitment program that has potential to scale across biomedical graduate programs. Results from the program show there are many underrepresented minorities that have the potential to thrive in biomedical training if supported. Lastly, Chapter 5 discusses the potential impact of multi-omics integration on the cancer field and other disease types. Taken together, these chapters represent key insights, improvements, and applications of multi-omics integration on human disease and opportunities for our graduate programs to be more engaged with DEI.

Book Integrated Analysis of Multi omics Data Using Sparse Canonical Correlation Analysis

Download or read book Integrated Analysis of Multi omics Data Using Sparse Canonical Correlation Analysis written by Alissa Marie Castleberry and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results Data analysis using head and neck squamous cell carcinoma samples from the Cancer Genome Atlas revealed that many of the miRNA-mRNA interactions of interest were on cancer or cancer-related pathways, such as the p53-signaling or melanoma pathways. Data analysis using microbe and metabolite data taken from colorectal cancer patients revealed that many of the metabolites produced by microbes of interest, such as tyrosine and lysylproline, were found on cancer or cancer-related pathways, like central carbon metabolism in cancer. Conclusion Using SCCA to inform a gene or metabolite set enrichment analysis is more informative than using simply a pairwise correlation analysis, as it better takes into account the complexity present in real biology. The performance of the proposed method shows promise for identifying biological pathways enriched for genes regulated by miRNA expression or metabolites produced by a certain set of microbes, and could be used to model other multi-omics datasets assuming a relationship between the two can be established.
