Although chemotherapy is the first-line treatment for ovarian cancer (OCa) patients, chemoresistance (CR) decreases their progression-free survival. This paper investigates the genetic interaction (GI) related to OCa-CR. To decrease the complexity of...
Gene expression profiling has played a significant role in the identification and classification of tumor molecules. In gene expression data, only a few feature genes are closely related to tumors. It is a challenging task to select highly discrimina...
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most malignant and lethal intracranial tumor, with extremely limited treatment options. Immunotherapy has been widely studied in GBM, but none can significantly prolong the overall survival (OS) of patients without selection...
MOTIVATION: Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) has been widely used to identify gene sets with statistically significant difference between cases and controls against a large gene set. GSEA needs both phenotype labels and expression of genes. Howeve...
Predicting disease-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is beneficial to finding of new biomarkers for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of complex human diseases. In this paper, we proposed a machine learning techniques-based classification appr...
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has been a challenging breast cancer subtype for oncological therapy. Normally, it can be classified into different molecular subtypes. Accurate and stable classification of the six subtypes is essential for perso...
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a common malignant brain tumor which often presents as a comorbidity with central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Both CNS disorders and GBM cells release glutamate and show an abnormality, but differ in cellular behavior. So, t...
Emerging evidence indicates that the abnormal expression of miRNAs involves in the evolution and progression of various human complex diseases. Identifying disease-related miRNAs as new biomarkers can promote the development of disease pathology and ...
Uveal melanoma (UVM) is the most common primary intraocular human malignancy with a high mortality rate. Aberrant DNA methylation has rapidly emerged as a diagnostic and prognostic signature in many cancers. However, such DNA methylation signature av...
The accurate quantification of tumor-infiltrating immune cells turns crucial to uncover their role in tumor immune escape, to determine patient prognosis and to predict response to immune checkpoint blockade. Current state-of-the-art methods that qua...
