The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects more than 90% of the human population, and is the cause of several both serious and mild diseases. It is a tumorivirus, and has been widely studied as a model system for gene (de)regulation in human. A…
It is estimated that approximately 15% of cancers worldwide can be linked to viral infections. The viruses that can cause or increase the risk of cancer include human papillomavirus, hepatitis B and C viruses, Epstein-Barr virus, and human…
Specific HPV DNA sequences are associated with more than 90% of invasive carcinomas of the uterine cervix. Viral E6 and E7 oncogenes are key mediators in cell transformation by disrupting TP53 and RB pathways. To investigate molecular…
The identification of cancer genes is a critical yet challenging problem in cancer genomics research. Existing computational methods, including deep graph neural networks, fail to exploit the multilayered gene-gene interactions or provide…
Genomic alterations lead to cancer complexity and form a major hurdle for a comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying oncogenesis. In this review, we describe the recent advances in studying cancer-associated genes…
Motivation: Epigenetic heterogeneity within a tumour can play an important role in tumour evolution and the emergence of resistance to treatment. It is increasingly recognised that the study of DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns along the…
The discovery of important biomarkers is a significant step towards understanding the molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis; enabling accurate diagnosis for, and prognosis of, a certain cancer type. Before recommending any diagnosis,…
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…
Heterogeneity is a fundamental characteristic of cancer. To accommodate heterogeneity, subgroup identification has been extensively studied and broadly categorized into unsupervised and supervised analysis. Compared to unsupervised…
Prognostic genes have been well studied within each type of cancer. However, investigations of the similarities and differences across cancer types are rare. In view of the optimal course of treatment, the classification of cancers into…
The estimation of covariance matrices of gene expressions has many applications in cancer systems biology. Many gene expression studies, however, are hampered by low sample size and it has therefore become popular to increase sample size by…
High-throughput genetic and epigenetic data are often screened for associations with an observed phenotype. For example, one may wish to test hundreds of thousands of genetic variants, or DNA methylation sites, for an association with…
Graphical models are commonly used to discover associations within gene or protein networks for complex diseases such as cancer. Most existing methods estimate a single graph for a population, while in many cases, researchers are interested…
While most studies emphasize on certain aspects of Pathogen-Host Interactions (PHI), such as the preferential attachment of bacteria or virus to its human receptor homolog, studies have attempted to methodically classify interactions among…
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…
Breast cancer is one of the most challenging global health problems among women. This study investigates the intricate breast tumor microenvironment (TME) dynamics utilizing data from Mammary-specific Polyomavirus Middle T Antigen…
Cancer is a term that denotes a group of diseases caused by abnormal growth of cells that can spread in different parts of the body. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cancer is the second major cause of death after…
We propose a new multi-network-based strategy to integrate different layers of genomic information and use them in a coordinate way to identify driving cancer genes. The multi-networks that we consider combine transcription factor…
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…
With the advent of Information technology, the Bioinformatics research field is becoming increasingly attractive to researchers and academicians. The recent development of various Bioinformatics toolkits has facilitated the rapid processing…
