Network Topology Reveals Key Cardiovascular Disease Genes
The structure of protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks has already been successfully used as a source of new biological information. Even though cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a major global cause of death, many CVD genes still await discovery. We explore ways to utilize the structure of the human PPI network to find important genes for CVDs that should be targeted by drugs. The hope i...
متن کاملNetwork analysis reveals crosstalk between autophagy genes and disease genes
Autophagy is a protective and life-sustaining process in which cytoplasmic components are packaged into double-membrane vesicles and targeted to lysosomes for degradation. Accumulating evidence supports that autophagy is associated with several pathological conditions. However, research on the functional cross-links between autophagy and disease genes remains in its early stages. In this study,...
متن کاملNetwork analysis of differentially expressed genes reveals key genes in small cell lung cancer.
OBJECTIVE A combination of comparative analysis of gene expression profiles between normal tissue samples and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) samples and network analysis was performed to identify key genes in SCLC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Microarray data set GSE43346 was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), including 43 normal tissue samples and 23 clinical SCLC samples. Differentially...
متن کاملTopology reveals universal features for network comparison
The topology of any complex system is key to understanding its structure and function. Fundamentally, algebraic topology guarantees that any system represented by a network can be understood through its closed paths. The length of each path provides a notion of scale, which is vitally important in characterizing dominant modes of system behavior. Here, by combining topology with scale, we prove...
