Identifying the genes and mutations that drive the emergence of tumors is a major step to improve understanding of cancer and identify new directions for disease diagnosis and treatment. Despite the large volume of genomics data, the…
Identifying the mutations that drive cancer growth is key in clinical decision making and precision oncology. As driver mutations confer selective advantage and thus have an increased likelihood of occurrence, frequency-based statistical…
Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the most frequent cause of disease among biliary tract neoplasms. Identifying the molecular mechanisms and biomarkers linked to GBC progression has been a significant challenge in scientific research. Few recent…
Individual cancer cells carry a bewildering number of distinct genomic alterations i.e., copy number variations and mutations, making it a challenge to uncover genomic-driven mechanisms governing tumorigenesis. Here we performed…
Cancer is a disease involving many genes, consequently it has been difficult to design anticancer drugs that are efficacious over a broad range of cancers. The robustness of cellular responses to gene knockout and the need to reduce…
Colon cancer is a prevalent gastrointestinal malignancy arising in the colon. Ulcerative colitis(UC) is one of the risk factors of colorectal cancer. The detection of under-expressed biomarkers and molecular mechanisms in UC and colon…
Background: Bladder cancer is the 10th most common cancer worldwide, and its prevalence is increasing, especially in developing countries. Objective: In the present study, we employed gene expression profiles from the GSE163209 data set in…
Identifying significant subsets of the genes, gene shaving is an essential and challenging issue for biomedical research for a huge number of genes and the complex nature of biological networks,. Since positive definite kernel based methods…
Background:Gene regulations often change over time rather than being constant. But many of gene regulatory networks extracted from databases are static. The tumor suppressor gene $P53$ is involved in the pathogenesis of many tumors, and its…
The Critical Node Problem (CNP) is concerned with identifying the critical nodes in a complex network. These nodes play a significant role in maintaining the connectivity of the network, and removing them can negatively impact network…
Cancer cell lines have frequently been used to link drug sensitivity and resistance with genomic profiles. To capture genomic complexity in cancer, the Cancer Genome Project (CGP) (Garnett et al., 2012) screened 639 human tumor cell lines…
Graph neural networks (GNNs) are increasingly used to model biological systems, yet the reliability of post-hoc explanation methods for recovering meaningful molecular mechanisms remains unclear. Here, we systematically evaluate four widely…
Genes communicate with each other through different regulatory effects, which lead to the emergence of complex structures in cells, and such structures are expected to be different for normal and cancerous cells. To study breast cancer…
Genes/Proteins do not work alone within our body, rather as a group they perform certain activities indicated as pathways. Signalling transduction pathways (STPs) are some of the important pathways that transmit biological signals from…
We propose a methodology for the identification of transcription factors involved in the deregulation of genes in tumoral cells. This strategy is based on the inference of a reference gene regulatory network that connects transcription…
The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) provides researchers with clinicopathological data and genomic characterizations of various carcinomas. These data sets include expression microarrays for genes and microRNAs -- short, non-coding strands of…
Tumour heterogeneity is increasingly recognized as a major obstacle to therapeutic success across neuro-oncology. Gliomas are characterised by distinct combinations of genetic and epigenetic alterations, resulting in complex interactions…
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer has emerged as one of the most prevalent cancers among women leading to a high mortality rate. Due to the heterogeneous nature of breast cancer, there is a need to identify differentially expressed genes associated…
Cancer forms a robust system and progresses as stages over time typically with increasing aggressiveness and worsening prognosis. Characterizing these stages and identifying the genes driving transitions between them is critical to…
In tumoral cells, gene regulation mechanisms are severely altered, and these modifications in the regulations may be characteristic of different subtypes of cancer. However, these alterations do not necessarily induce differential…
