Hybrid modeling of cell signaling and transcriptional reprogramming and its application in C. elegans development
(Frontiers Media, 2011)
Modeling of signal driven transcriptional reprogramming is critical for understanding of organism development, human disease, and cell biology. Many current modeling techniques discount key features of the biological ...
CoGAPS matrix factorization algorithm identifies transcriptional changes in AP-2alpha target genes in feedback from therapeutic inhibition of the EGFR network
(Impact Journals, 2016)
Patients with oncogene driven tumors are treated with targeted therapeutics including EGFR inhibitors. Genomic data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) demonstrates molecular alterations to EGFR, MAPK, and PI3K pathways ...
CoGAPS: an R/C++ package to identify patterns and biological process activity in transcriptomic data
(Oxford University Press, 2010)
Coordinated Gene Activity in Pattern Sets (CoGAPS) provides an integrated package for isolating gene expression driven by a biological process, enhancing inference of biological processes from transcriptomic data. CoGAPS ...
AGA: Interactive pipeline for reproducible gene expression and DNA methylation data analyses
(F1000Research, 2015)
Automated Genomics Analysis (AGA) is an interactive program to analyze high-throughput genomic data sets on a variety of platforms. An easy to use, point and click, guided pipeline is implemented to combine, define, and ...
Gene expression signatures modulated by epidermal growth factor receptor activation and their relationship to cetuximab resistance in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
(BioMed Central, 2012)
Background
Aberrant activation of signaling pathways downstream of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been hypothesized to be one of the mechanisms of cetuximab (a monoclonal antibody against EGFR) resistance in ...
PatternMarkers & GWCoGAPS for novel data-driven biomarkers via whole transcriptome NMF
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) algorithms associate gene expression with biological processes (e.g. time-course dynamics or disease subtypes). Compared with univariate associations, the relative weights of NMF ...
Integrative computational analysis of transcriptional and epigenetic alterations implicates DTX1 as a putative tumor suppressor gene in HNSCC
(Impact Journals, 2017)
Over a half million new cases of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) are diagnosed annually worldwide, however, 5 year overall survival is only 50% for HNSCC patients. Recently, high throughput technologies have ...
Identifying context-specific transcription factor targets from prior knowledge and gene expression data
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2013)
Numerous methodologies, assays, and databases presently provide candidate targets of transcription factors (TFs). However, TFs rarely regulate their targets universally. The context of activation of a TF can change the ...
Splice Expression Variation Analysis (SEVA) for inter-tumor heterogeneity of gene isoform usage in cancer
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
Motivation
Current bioinformatics methods to detect changes in gene isoform usage in distinct phenotypes compare the relative expected isoform usage in phenotypes. These statistics model differences in isoform usage in ...
Toward Signaling-Driven Biomarkers Immune to Normal Tissue Contamination
(Libertas Academica, 2016)
The goal of this study was to discover a minimally invasive pathway-specific biomarker that is immune to normal cell mRNA contamination for diagnosing head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Using Elsevier's MedScan ...
