Predicted networks FOR a number of

• Organism-specific efficient and robust
Bayesian frameworks
• Orthology-based information transfer and
phylogenetic profiling
• Networks predicted for different types of
functional coupling (metabolic, signaling
etc.)

TGFβ <-> cancer pathway cross-talk
FunCoup was queried for any links between members of
TGFβ pathway (left blue circle) and habituées of known
cancer pathways (members of at least 7 out of 18
groups; right blue circle). MAPK1 and MAPK3 belonged
to both categories.

Single molecular markers are (often) far from perfect.
Combinations (signatures) should perform better.
The problem:
How to select optimal combinations?
Biomarker discovery in network context
The idea:
Construct multi-gene predictors with
regard to network context
• Reduce the computational complexity
• Make marker sets biologically sound
Accounting for network context is taking either:
a) network neighbors or
b) genes at remote network positions
Procedure
“Rotterdam” dataset (Wang et al., 2005): 286 patients
Clinical data:
Expression:
~22000 probes
×
Estrogen receptor status: +/ –
Lymph. node status: all –
Relapse : yes/no and time (days)
Individual probe p-values (~22000):
Estrogen receptor-specific ability to predict relapse
Select most significant probes (1000):
Candidate members for marker signatures
Compile set of probes:
N probes at a time (e.g. N=20 or N=50)
1.
Split data: 75% to train, 25% to test.
2.
Produce a linear regression equation (weight terms step-wise, reward for
performance, penalize for complexity) on the train sub-set.
3.
Apply the equation to the test set to predict outcome (relapse yes/no).
Repeat m times4. Record the specificity/sensitivity (Type I/II error rates) as ROC curve.
RELAPSE = γ1g1 + γ2g2 + γ3g3 + … + γNgN

is a framework for biomarker discovery:
• Markers can be discovered and presented in the
network dimension.
• Choice of data types to incorporate is unlimited –
from metabolite profiling to patient phenotypes.
Useful features:
• Web-based resource ready for further expansion
and presenting new research results in an interactome
perspective;
• Cross-species network comparison of human and
model organisms.
• Efficient query system to retrieve network
environments of interest.
