Gene expression varies due to the intrinsic stochasticity of transcription or as a reaction to external perturbations that generate cellular mutations. Co-regulation, co-expression and functional similarity of substances have been employed for indoctrinating the process of the transcriptional paradigm. The difficult process of analysing complicated proteomes and biological switches has been made easier by technical improvements, and microarray technology has flourished as a viable platform. Therefore, this research enables microarray to cluster genes that are co-expressed and co-regulated into specific segments. Copious search algorithms have been employed to ascertain diacritic motifs or a combination of motifs that are performing regular expression, and their relevant information corresponding to the gene patterns is also documented. The associated genes co-expression and relevant cis-elements are further explored by engaging Escherichia coli as a model organism. Various clustering algorithms have also been used to generate classes of genes with similar expression profiles. A promoter database 'EcoPromDB' has been developed by referring RegulonDB database;this promoter database is freely available at and is divided into two sub-groups, depending upon the results of co-expression and co-regulation analyses.

In the past few decades, both gene expression data and protein-protein interaction (PPI)networks have been extensively studied, due to their ability to depict important characteristics of disease-associated genes. In this regard, the paper presents a new gene prioritization algorithm to identify and prioritize cancer-causing genes, integrating judiciously the complementary information obtained from two data sources. The proposed algorithm selects disease-causing genes by maximizing the importance of selected genes and functional similarity among them. A new quantitative index is introduced to evaluate the importance of a gene. It considers whether a gene exhibits a differential expression pattern across sick and healthy individuals, and has a strong connectivity in the PPI network, which are the important characteristics of a potential biomarker. As disease-associated genes are expected to have similar expression profiles and topological structures, a scalable non-linear graph fusion technique, termed as ScaNGraF, is proposed to learn a disease-dependent functional similarity network from the co-expression and common neighbor based similarity networks. The proposed ScaNGraF, which is based on message passing algorithm, efficiently combines the shared and complementary information provided by different data sources with significantly lower computational cost. A new measure, termed as DiCoIN, is introduced to evaluate the quality of a learned affinity network. The performance of the proposed graph fusion technique and gene selection algorithm is extensively compared with that of some existing methods, using several cancer data sets.

This paper presents a sequence of steps oriented to gain biological knowledge from microarray gene expression data. The pipeline's core is a canonical multi-objective Genetic Algorithm (GA), which takes a gene expression matrix and a factor as input. The factor groups samples according to different criteria, e.g., healthy tissue and diseased tissue samples. The result of one run of the GA is a gene set with good properties both at the individual level, in terms of differential expression, and at the aggregate level, in terms of correlation between expression profiles. microarray experiment data are obtained from GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus dataset). As for the pipeline structure, independent runs of the GA are analyzed, genes in common between all the runs are collected, and over-representation analysis is performed. At the end of the process, a small number of genes of interest arise. The methodology is exemplified with a leukemia benchmark dataset, and a group of genes of interest is obtained for the illustrative example.

The classification of cancers is one of the most vital functions of microarray data analysis. The classification of the gene expression profile is treated as a NP-Hard problem since it is a very demanding job. Compared to the individual search utilized by conventional algorithms, the population search utilized by Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) is visibly more beneficial. In feasible search areas, EA algorithms also are more likely to detect various optimums instantly. Evolutionary techniques which are inspired by nature perform exceptionally well and are extensively used for microarray data analysis. Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a distinct intelligent optimization algorithm based on iterative optimization which uses ideas like evolution and group. ACO algorithm was developed by studying how ants identify paths while food foraging. Ant Lion Optimization (ALO) algorithm is proposed and employed as muted selection process and the ant lions to hunt process is simulated. A hybrid ant lion mutated ant colony optimizer technique is proposed in this work.

Uterine smooth muscular neoplastic growths like benign leiomyomas (UL) and metastatic leiomyosarcomas (ULMS) share similar clinical symptoms, radiological and histological appearances making their clinical distinction a difficult task. Therefore, the objective of this study is to identify key genes and pathways involved in transformation of UL to ULMS through molecular differential analysis. Global gene expression profiles of 25 ULMS, 25 UL, and 29 myometrium (Myo) tissues generated on Affymetrix U133A 2.0 human genome microarrays were analyzed by deploying robust statistical, molecular interaction network, and pathway enrichment methods. The comparison of expression signals across Myo vs UL, Myo vs ULMS, and UL vs ULMS groups identified 249, 1037, and 716 significantly expressed genes, respectively (p <= 0.05). The analysis of 249 DEGs from Myo vs UL confirms multistage dysregulation of various key pathways in extracellular matrix, collagen, cell contact inhibition, and cytokine receptors transform normal myometrial cells to benign leiomyomas (p value <= 0.01). The 716 DEGs between UL vs ULMS were found to affect cell cycle, cell division related Rho GTPases and PI3K signaling pathways triggering uncontrolled growth and metastasis of tumor cells (p value <= 0.01). Integration of gene networking data, with additional parameters like estimation of mutation burden of tumors and cancer driver gene identification, has led to the finding of 4 hubs (JUN, VCAN, TOP2A, and COL1A1) and 8 bottleneck genes (PIK3R1, MYH11, KDR, ESR1, WT1, CCND1, EZH2, and CDKN2A), which showed a clear distinction in their distribution pattern among leiomyomas and leiomyosarcomas. This study provides vital clues for molecular distinction of UL and ULMS which could further assist in identification of specific diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets.

Bulk high-throughput omics data contain signals from a mixture of cell types. Recent developments of deconvolution methods facilitate cell type-specific inferences from bulk data. Our real data exploration suggests that differential expression or methylation status is often correlated among cell types. Based on this observation, we develop a novel statistical method named CeDAR to incorporate the cell type hierarchy in cell type-specific differential analyses of bulk data. Extensive simulation and real data analyses demonstrate that this approach significantly improves the accuracy and power in detecting cell type-specific differential signals compared with existing methods, especially in low-abundance cell types.

Backgrounds: COVID-19 has impaired the health of many people around the world since 2019. In recent years, necroptosis has been defined as a crucial cell death in many diseases as well as has an association with COVID-19. However, the mechanism of necroptosis in COVID-19 remains to be excavated. Methods: The GEO series was used to get different expression genes. Intersected with necroptosis genes, necroptosis-related genes were got and to work on enrichment analysis. The LASSO regression algorithm was applied to selected signature genes associated with progression. Then we analyzed the correlation and tissue locations of these genes. Immune infiltration was analyzed with the use of an R script. To find the regulatory targets, networks of TF and miRNA genes were built. LINCS database was carried out to get potential drugs. Results: 17 necroptosis-related DEGs were enriched in several progress represented by cytoplasmic transcription. We obtained 9 signature genes through LASSO regression algorithm, including TP53I3, CDK1, MAPK14, AURKA, PGLYRP1, VIL1, TRAF5, ZBP1, and CYLD. These 9 genes showed a strong correlation. analysis showed differences in immune infiltration in patients with non-severe and severe COVID-19. One transcription factor and 5 miRNAs were identified through regulatory networks. 10 drugs were predicted to be useful. Conclusion: Our results revealed 9 necroptosis signature genes that could evaluate the development of COVID-19, and identified potential targets and drugs that have treatment potential. These findings provide novel information for the treatment of COVID-19.
