    Prediction of Type 2 Diabetes Using Metagenomic Data and Identification of Taxonomic Biomarkers
    (IEEE, 2024-05-15) Temiz, Mustafa; Kuzudisli, Cihan; Yousef, Malik; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu
    Nowadays, different molecular levels of -omics data on diseases are generated and analyzing these data with machine learning methods is one of the popular research topics. Among these data, the use of metagenomic data to facilitate the diagnosis, detection and treatment of diseases is increasing day by day. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic disease characterized by insulin resistance and progressive dysfunction of pancreatic beta cells. While the number of people with diabetes is increasing by around 8% annually, the cost of treating the disease is rising by 18% per year. Therefore, the number of studies on the diagnosis, development and progression of T2D is increasing over time. The aim of this study is to achieve higher machine learning performance by using fewer metagenomic features and to achieve better classification performance by reducing computational costs. In this study, we compare the performance of three different methods using T2D-related metagenomic data. First, the MetaPhlAn tool is used to calculate the taxonomic species and their relative abundances in each sample. The SVM-RCE, RCE-IFE and microBiomeGSM tools used in this study are methods that perform classification by grouping and scoring features and are known to work well on complex datasets. In this study, the best results were obtained with the RCE-IFE tool with an AUC of 0.72 with an average of 125 features information. In addition, key taxonomic species identified by these tools as associated with T2D are presented in comparison to the literature.

    Metagenomic Data Analysis With Machine Learning to Discover Colorectal Cancer-Associated Enzymes
    (IEEE, 2024-05-15) Ersoz, Nur Sebnem; Kuzudisli, Cihan; Yousef, Malik; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu
    The human gut microbiome comprises over 10 trillion microbes and plays important roles in maintaining metabolism, body homeostasis, impacting immune function. Metagenomics which studies genomic data from clinical and environmental samples is crucial in understanding the interplay between the host and the gut microbiome. Recently, functional profiling of metagenomes helps to identify alterations in microbial functions, particularly enzyme-encoding genes. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is known as one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths. In this study, we aimed to find the CRC-associated enzymes by analyzing metagenomic data with different machine learning methods. A total of 1262 samples including CRC and control groups from different countries were used in this study. This dataset was obtained by functionally profiling metagenomics data and estimating community level enzyme commission (EC) abundance values. For the analysis of this dataset, RCE-IFE and SVM-RCE machine learning methods, which are group-based feature selection methods, were compared with 6 different individual feature selection methods. 10 times Monte-Carlo Cross Validation was used in our experiments. It was observed that RCE-IFE, Extreme Gradient Boosting and Select K Best methods similarly provided the best performances. Especially in this study, besides the its high performance, the group-based feature selection method RCE-IFE grouped enzymes into clusters unlike TFS, and then identified biologically relevant CRC-associated enzymes.

    Colorectal Cancer Prediction via Applying Recursive Cluster Elimination With Intra-Cluster Feature Elimination on Metagenomic Pathway Data
    (Springer International Publishing AG, 2024) Temiz, Mustafa; Kuzudisli, Cihan; Yousef, Malik; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu
    Advances in next-generation sequencing and in "-omics" technologies enable the characterization of the human gut microbiome. Colorectal cancer (CRC), the third most common cancer worldwide, is caused by genetic mutations, environmental influences, and abnormalities in the gut microbiota. The aim of this study is to identify pathways that influence host metabolism in CRC patients. The CRC-related metagenomic dataset used in this study contains the relative abundance values of 551 pathways calculated for 1262 samples. Here, two different approaches based on the feature grouping reduce the number of features by considering relevant features as groups, eliminate irrelevant features, and perform classification. The recursive cluster elimination with intra-cluster feature elimination (RCE-IFE) approach achieves anAUCof 0.72 using an average of 66.2 features on CRC-associated metagenomics dataset. In these experiments, P163-PWY: L-lysine fermentation to acetate and butanoate and PWY-6151: S-adenosyl-L-methionine cycle I pathways are identified as potential biomarkers associated with CRC. These experiments also reduce the number of features reported by both approaches in P163-PWY: L-lysine fermentation to acetate and butanoate and PWY-6151: Sadenosyl-L-methionine cycle I pathways reported by both approaches are considered possible CRC-related biomarkers. This study contributes to the molecular diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer by revealing the pathways associated with CRC. Our results are promising for the study of the gut microbiota and its role in CRC.
