DNA methylation is a well-studied genetic modification that regulates gene transcription of Eukaryotes. Its alternations have been recognized as a significant component of cancer development. In this study, we use the DNA methylation 450k…
Many researches demonstrated that the DNA methylation, which occurs in the context of a CpG, has strong correlation with diseases, including cancer. There is a strong interest in analyzing the DNA methylation data to find how to distinguish…
DNA Methylation has been the most extensively studied epigenetic mark. Usually a change in the genotype, DNA sequence, leads to a change in the phenotype, observable characteristics of the individual. But DNA methylation, which happens in…
DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mark that has been studied extensively for its regulatory role in biological processes and diseases. WGBS allows for genome-wide measurements of DNA methylation up to single-base resolutions, yet…
Epigenetic alterations have an important role in the development of several types of cancer. Epigenetic studies generate a large amount of data, which makes it essential to develop novel models capable of dealing with large-scale data. In…
A novel method to classify human cells is presented in this work based on the transform-domain method on DNA methylation data. DNA methylation profile variations are observed in human cells with the progression of disease stages, and the…
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism that regulates gene expression by adding methyl groups to DNA. Abnormal methylation patterns can disrupt gene expression and have been linked to cancer development. To quantify DNA methylation,…
Identifying differentially methylated cytosine-guanine dinucleotide (CpG) sites between benign and tumour samples can assist in understanding disease. However, differential analysis of bounded DNA methylation data often requires data…
DNA methylation is a significant driver of cell-type heterogeneity and has been implicated in various regulatory processes ranging from cell differentiation to imprinting. As the methyl group is embedded in the DNA molecule, assessing DNA…
Motivation: DNA methylation is an intensely studied epigenetic mark, yet its functional role is incompletely understood. Attempts to quantitatively associate average DNA methylation to gene expression yield poor correlations outside of the…
We make use of ideas from the theory of complex networks to implement a machine learning classification of human DNA methylation data, that carry signatures of cancer development. The data were obtained from patients with various kinds of…
Cancer and its subtypes constitute approximately 30% of all causes of death globally and display a wide range of heterogeneity in terms of clinical and molecular responses to therapy. Molecular subtyping has enabled the use of precision…
The research reported in this paper identifies the epigenetic biomarker (methylation beta pattern) of breast cancer. Many cancers are triggered by abnormal gene expression levels caused by aberrant methylation of CpG sites in the DNA. In…
The prediction plays the important role in detecting efficient protection and therapy of cancer. The prediction of mutations in gene needs a diagnostic and classification, which is based on the whole database (big dataset), to reach…
DNA cytosine methylation is a critical epigenetic mark regulating gene expression and thus playing an important role in development and differentiation across eukaryotes. Existing tools for high-throughput methylation analysis often lack…
Cancer development is associated with aberrant DNA methylation, including increased stochastic variability. Statistical tests for discovering cancer methylation biomarkers have focused on changes in mean methylation. To improve the power of…
