Enabling Precision Medicine through Integrative Network Models.

Journal of molecular biology
A key challenge in precision medicine lies in understanding molecular-level underpinnings of complex human disease. Biological networks in multicellular organisms can generate hypotheses about disease genes, pathways, and their behavior in disease-re...

Network-based association analysis to infer new disease-gene relationships using large-scale protein interactions.

PloS one
Protein-protein interactions integrated with disease-gene associations represent important information for revealing protein functions under disease conditions to improve the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of complex diseases. Although several ...

Epigenetic machine learning: utilizing DNA methylation patterns to predict spastic cerebral palsy.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Spastic cerebral palsy (CP) is a leading cause of physical disability. Most people with spastic CP are born with it, but early diagnosis is challenging, and no current biomarker platform readily identifies affected individuals. The aim of...

Leveraging multiple gene networks to prioritize GWAS candidate genes via network representation learning.

Methods (San Diego, Calif.)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have successfully discovered a number of disease-associated genetic variants in the past decade, providing an unprecedented opportunity for deciphering genetic basis of human inherited diseases. However, it is s...

C-PUGP: A cluster-based positive unlabeled learning method for disease gene prediction and prioritization.

Computational biology and chemistry
Disease gene detection is an important stage in the understanding disease processes and treatment. Some candidate disease genes are identified using many machine learning methods Although there are some differences in these methods including feature ...

Evaluation of computational techniques for predicting non-synonymous single nucleotide variants pathogenicity.

Genomics
The human genetic diseases associated with many factors, one of these factors is the non-synonymous Single Nucleotide Variants (nsSNVs) cause single amino acid change with another resulting in protein function change leading to disease. Many computat...

Brain-specific functional relationship networks inform autism spectrum disorder gene prediction.

Translational psychiatry
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neuropsychiatric disorder with strong evidence of genetic contribution, and increased research efforts have resulted in an ever-growing list of ASD candidate genes. However, only a fraction of the hundreds of nomin...

Informatics and machine learning to define the phenotype.

Expert review of molecular diagnostics
For the past decade, the focus of complex disease research has been the genotype. From technological advancements to the development of analysis methods, great progress has been made. However, advances in our definition of the phenotype have remained...

Risk-Predicting Model for Incident of Essential Hypertension Based on Environmental and Genetic Factors with Support Vector Machine.

Interdisciplinary sciences, computational life sciences
Essential hypertension (EH) has become a major chronic disease around the world. To build a risk-predicting model for EH can help to interpose people's lifestyle and dietary habit to decrease the risk of getting EH. In this study, we constructed a EH...

Prediction of inherited genomic susceptibility to 20 common cancer types by a supervised machine-learning method.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Prevention and early intervention are the most effective ways of avoiding or minimizing psychological, physical, and financial suffering from cancer. However, such proactive action requires the ability to predict the individual's susceptibility to ca...
