Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 25miRdisNET: Discovering MicroRNA Biomarkers That Are Associated With Diseases Utilizing Biological Knowledge-Based Machine Learning(Frontiers Media S.A., 2023-01-12) Jabeer, Amhar; Temiz, Mustafa; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Yousef, MalikDuring recent years, biological experiments and increasing evidence have shown that MicroRNAs play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of human complex diseases. Therefore, to diagnose and treat human complex diseases, it is necessary to reveal the associations between a specific disease and related miRNAs. Although current computational models based on machine learning attempt to determine miRNA-disease associations, the accuracy of these models need to be improved, and candidate miRNA-disease relations need to be evaluated from a biological perspective. In this paper, we propose a computational model named miRdisNET to predict potential miRNA-disease associations. Specifically, miRdisNET requires two types of data, i.e., miRNA expression profiles and known disease-miRNA associations as input files. First, we generate subsets of specific diseases by applying the grouping component. These subsets contain miRNA expressions with class labels associated with each specific disease. Then, we assign an importance score to each group by using a machine learning method for classification. Finally, we apply a modeling component and obtain outputs. One of the most important outputs of miRdisNET is the performance of miRNA-disease prediction. Compared with the existing methods, miRdisNET obtained the highest AUC value of .9998. Another output of miRdisNET is a list of significant miRNAs for disease under study. The miRNAs identified by miRdisNET are validated via referring to the gold-standard databases which hold information on experimentally verified MicroRNA-disease associations. miRdisNET has been developed to predict candidate miRNAs for new diseases, where miRNA-disease relation is not yet known. In addition, miRdisNET presents candidate disease-disease associations based on shared miRNA knowledge.

Using gene expression databases and biomarkers, the research aims to improve breast cancer molecular subtype identification for better patient outcomes. Using BRCA LumAB_ Her2Basal dataset, this study compares an integrative machine learning-based strategy (GediNET) to traditional feature selection approaches across machine learning classifiers. GediNET excels at uncovering crucial disease-disease connections and potential biomarkers using the Grouping-Scoring-Modeling (GSM) approach, which favors gene groupings above individual genes. Our comparative analysis highlights GediNET's exceptional performance, notably in terms of accuracy and Area Under the Curve metrics, underscoring its effectiveness in uncovering the genetic intricacies of breast cancer. GediNET's promise to improve disease classification and biomarker identification by improving biological mechanism understanding goes beyond exceeding traditional approaches. The work shows that GediNET's integrative method can promote bioinformatics research by identifying the most informative genes associated with certain diseases, enabling focused and customized medicine.
