Book Unsupervised Data Mining Applications on High Dimensional Gene Expression Time Series in Toxicogenomics

Download or read book Unsupervised Data Mining Applications on High Dimensional Gene Expression Time Series in Toxicogenomics written by Ce Gao and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toxicogenomics, the study of adverse effects caused by toxicants to human health and environment via high-throughput genomics technologies, present promising alternatives to expensive and lengthy animal-based approaches in toxicity testing and risk assessment. Advances in toxicogenomics techniques now enable monitoring cellular activities continuously, under a large range of experimental and biological conditions and providing comprehensive and high-resolution information at molecular levels. The research interests in toxicogenomics center on key issues involving the quantification of molecular toxic effects, the linkage between molecular endpoints and phenotypic ones, the discernment of dose-response and pharmacokinetics relationships, as well as the integration of bioinformatics into predictive toxicology. In particular, the increasingly complex and voluminous toxicogenomics data pose great analytical challenges. The existing bioinformatics tools are incompatible with the high dimensionality and temporal dynamics of the data, possibly leading to unreliable and misinterpretation of the potential toxicity connotation. The objectives of this dissertation are to develop and demonstrate new or improved methodology that better address the challenges and limitations in high dimensional time series toxicogenomics data analysis for critical bioinformatics application such as toxicity mechanism identification, toxicants classification, and for predictive toxicology knowledge discovery. In this study, we develop new or improve bioinformatics data analysis algorithms so that they are capable of processing high dimensional time series toxicogenomics data, therefore better capture and reflect the dynamics of cellular response to toxicants. We also prove the potential and validity of the incorporation of various molecular disturbance/effect quantifiers into various functional toxicogenomics bioinformatics to provide quantitative insights into the toxicant-induced cellular molecular responses at individual gene, specific pathway and system levels. In addition, we demonstrate the effectives of unsupervised bioinformatics tools for mining new, more in depth, much-detailed and fundamental knowledge and understanding of toxicological information at molecular level. This research could generate new information to fill in the urgent knowledge gaps in toxicogenomics that present barriers to the realization of predictive toxicology and make contributions to several fields including toxicology, bioinformatics and environmental science.

Book Beyond Expression Profile Clustering

Download or read book Beyond Expression Profile Clustering written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We present methods for comparative exploration of high-dimensional biological time-series datasets. In this work we focus on the analysis of gene expression data measured by either microarry or RNAseq. However, the methods we develop are applicable to a range of other high-dimensional datasets, including protein and metabolite datasets, as they become increasingly available. The datasets we work with consist of expression profiles for thousands or tens of thousands of gene. Each of these expression profiles is a time series of expression values for a specific gene. Expression profiles for the genes are sampled under two or more related conditions such as chemical/vehicle exposure or gene suppression/overexpression. Identifying similarities and differences across expression profiles can provide a better understanding of the relationships among the experimental conditions in the dataset. In pursuit of this, we present three novel methods for the analysis of multi-conditional time-series datasets. First, we introduce an approach called Multi-View Clustering. Given a dataset with expression profiles measured under two related conditions, Multi-View Clustering clusters genes on both expression profiles and alignments, where the alignment for a gene represents the correspondences between its expression profiles across conditions. Second, we describe Stable Alignment Clustering, an improved alignment clustering approach which harnesses a common method of assessing cluster stability to counteract instability in alignment clusters. Third,we present ConditionalMotif Finding a method for detecting patterns in time-series datasets where the genes are measured under more than two conditions. By grouping genes and conditions into subsets based on alignment similarity across conditions, this method characterizes the experimental conditions in the dataset by a set of motifs: gene/condition clusters that describe common patterns of change in the dataset.

Book Toxicity Testing in the 21st Century

Download or read book Toxicity Testing in the 21st Century written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-10-05 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in molecular biology and toxicology are paving the way for major improvements in the evaluation of the hazards posed by the large number of chemicals found at low levels in the environment. The National Research Council was asked by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to review the state of the science and create a far-reaching vision for the future of toxicity testing. The book finds that developing, improving, and validating new laboratory tools based on recent scientific advances could significantly improve our ability to understand the hazards and risks posed by chemicals. This new knowledge would lead to much more informed environmental regulations and dramatically reduce the need for animal testing because the new tests would be based on human cells and cell components. Substantial scientific efforts and resources will be required to leverage these new technologies to realize the vision, but the result will be a more efficient, informative and less costly system for assessing the hazards posed by industrial chemicals and pesticides.
