Conference Object Comparison of Disease Specific Sub-Network Identification Programs(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Dedeturk, Beyhan Adanur; Bakir-Güngör, Burcu; Adanur, Beyhun; Gungor, Burcu BakirActive sub-network search aims to identify a group of interconnected genes in a protein-protein interaction network that contains most of the disease-associated genes. In recent years, to address active sub-network search problem, various algorithms and programs are developed. In this study, performances of disease specific sub-network identification programs are compared. The same input dataset is run in jActiveModules, ActiveSubnetworkGA, CytoHubba, ClusterViz, MCODE, CytoMOBAS, PathFindR, PINBPA and PEWCC programs. Then, functional enrichment analysis is applied on obtained sub-networks. Finally, they are compared according to the results of GO Enrichment Analysis. In addition to these, work performances, features and requirements of programs are compared. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Nöromüsküler Hastalıkların Ortak MikroRNA ve Yolaklarının İn Siliko Yöntemlerle Belirlenmesi(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-04) Ünlü Yazici, Miray; Aksu-Menges, Evrim; Akkaya-Ulum, Yeliz Z.; Balcihayta, Burcu; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuNeuromuscular disorders (NMD) are a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by the loss of function of the peripheral nerves and muscles. However, there are no effective and widespread therapeutic approaches to prevent or delay the progression of these disease types. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) which cause significant changes in gene expression by binding to target messenger RNAs (mRNAs), are known to have an effect on disease mechanisms. In this study, by integrating different bioinformatics methods, we aim to find miRNAs, target genes and pathways related to a group of neuromuscular diseases. For this purpose, we determined 17 miRNAs that show significant expression changes between patient and healthy groups; predicted target genes of these miRNAs; and identified affected pathways using subnetwork discovery, functional enrichment based algorithms. In our study, we integrated different in-silico approaches that proceed in topdown manner or bottom-up manner. The identified candidate miRNAs, genes and pathways, which could help to explain neuromuscular disease development mechanisms, are now under investigation in wet-lab. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Papiller Tiroid Karsinom Oluşumunda Etkili Moleküler Mekanizmaların İn Siliko Yöntemlerle Tespit Edilmesi(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-04) Ersöz, Nur Sebnem; Guzel, Yasin; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuRepresenting approximately 70% to 80% of thyroid cancers, papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancers. PTC is seen in all age groups, but it is seen more frequently in women than in men. Detection of biomarker proteins of papillary thyroid cancinoma plays an important role in the diagnosis of the disease. In this study, we aim to find target genes and pathways that are associated with papillar thyroid carcinoma, by integrating different bioinformatics methods. For this purpose, usingin-silico methodologies, candidate genes and pathways that could explain disease development mechanisms are identified. Throughout this study, firstly we identified differentially expressed genes as the amount of their protein product differ between patient and healthy groups. Secondly, by using active subnetworks search algorithms, topologic analyses and functional enrichment tests, candidate proteins,which could be thought as PTC biomarkers, and affected pathways are identified. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Kolon Kanserinde Etkilenen Yolak Alt Ağlarini Ve Kümelenmelerini Belirlemek için Yeni Bir Yöntem(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-09) Göy, Gökhan; Ünlü Yazici, Miray; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuNowadays new technological developments that play an important role in the production of big data have brought about the interpretation, sharing and storage of data related to complex diseases. Combining multi-omic data in different molecular levels is potentially important for understanding the biological origin of complex diseases. One of these complex diseases is cancer of different types, which has one of the highest causes of death worldwide. The integration of multiple omic data in the framework of a comprehensive analysis and identification of relevant pathways contribute to the development of therapeutic approaches related to disease. In this study, RNA and methylation data (genes and p values) of colon adenocarcinoma were obtained from TCGA data portal and combined with Fisher's method. While protein subnetworks affected by the disease were identified by using subnetwork algorithm, pathways related to the disease and genes associated with these pathways were determined by functional enrichment analysis. Using gene-pathway relationship matrix, kappa scores of pathways were determined by similarity calculation. In this way, the pathways were clustered according to the hierarchically optimal number, as a result, the most important pathway clusters and related genes that are effective in disease formation identified. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
