Commonly biological processes such as proliferation and apoptosis have been linked to cancer progression. Based on expression data we perform functional enrichment analysis, infer gene regulatory networks and upstream regulator analysis to score the importance of well-known biological processes with respect to the studied cancer. We then use these scores to predict two specific roles: genes that act as tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) and genes that act as oncogenes (OCGs). This methodology not only allows us to identify genes with dual role (TSG in one cancer type and OCG in another) but also to elucidate the underlying biological processes. # Introduction Cancer development is influenced by mutations in two distinctly different categories of genes, known as tumor suppressor genes (TSG) and oncogenes (OCG). The occurrence of mutations in genes of the first category leads to faster cell proliferation while mutations in genes of second category increases or changes their function. We propose `MoonlightR` a new approach to define TSGs and OCGs based on functional enrichment analysis, infer gene regulatory networks and upstream regulator analysis to score the importance of well-known biological processes with respect to the studied cancer. # Moonlight's pipeline Moonlight's pipeline is shown below: ```{r, fig.width=6, fig.height=4, echo = FALSE, fig.align="center",hide=TRUE, message=FALSE,warning=FALSE} library(png) library(grid) img <- readPNG("Moonlight_Pipeline.png") grid.raster(img) ``` # Moonlight's proposed workflow The proposed pipeline consists of following eight steps: 1. **getDataTCGA** \& **getDataGEO** for Data collection: expression levels of genes in all samples obtained with IlluminaHiSeq RNASeqV2 in 18 normal tissues (NT) and 18 cancer tissues (CT) according to TCGA criteria, and GEO data set matched to one of the 18 given TCGA cancer types as described in following Table TCGA / GEO. 2. **DPA** Differential Phenotype Analysis (DEA) to identify genes or probes that are different significantly with two phenotypes such as normal and tumor, or normal and stageI, normal and molecular subtype. 3. **FEA** Functional Enrichment Analysis (EA), using Fisher's test, to identify gene sets (with biological functions linked to cancer1) significantly enriched by RG. 4. **GRN** Gene regulatory network inferred between each single DEG (sDEG) and all genes by means of mutual information, obtaining for each DEG a list of regulated genes (RG). 5. **URA** Upstream Regulator Analysis for DEGs in each enriched gene set, we applied z-score being the ratio between the sum of all predicted effects for all the gene involved in the specific function and the square-root of the number of all genes. 6. **PRA** Pattern recognition analysis identifies candidate TCGs (down) and OCGs (up). We either use user defined biological processes or random forests. 7. We applied the above procedure to multiple cancer types to obtain cancer-specific lists of TCGs and OCGs. We compared the lists for each cancer: if a sDEG was TSG in a cancer and OCG in another we defined it as dual-role TSG-OCG. Otherwise if we found a sDEG defined as OCG or TSG only in one tissue we defined it tissue specific biomarker. 8. We use the COSMIC database to define a list of gold standard TSG and OCGs to assess the accuracy of the proposed method. 1 For the devel version of MoonlightR we use a short extract of ten biological functions from QIAGEN'S Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). We are still working to integrate the\Biocpkg{ReactomePA} package. # Installation To install use the code below. ```{r, eval = FALSE} source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") biocLite("MoonlightR") ``` ## Citation Please cite TCGAbiolinks package: * "TCGAbiolinks: an R/Bioconductor package for integrative analysis of TCGA data."

For gene expression data, DPA is running a differential expression analysis (DEA) to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) using the `TCGAanalyze_DEA` function from \Biocpkg{TCGAbiolinks}. For methylation data, DPA is running a differentially methylated regions analysis (DMR) to identify differentially methylated CpG sites using the `TCGAanalyze_DMR` the `TCGAanalyze_DMR` function from \Biocpkg{TCGAbiolinks}. ```{r, eval = FALSE, message=FALSE, results='hide', warning=FALSE} dataDEGs <- DPA(dataFilt = dataFilt, dataType = "Gene expression") ``` For gene expression data, DPA dealing with GEO data is running a differential expression analysis (DEA) to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) using to the `eBayes` and `topTable` functions from \Biocpkg{limma}. ```{r, eval = FALSE, echo = TRUE, hide=TRUE, results='hide', warning = FALSE, message = FALSE} data(GEO_TCGAtab) DataAnalysisGEO<- "../GEO_dataset/" i<-5 cancer <- GEO_TCGAtab$Cancer[i] cancerGEO <- GEO_TCGAtab$Dataset[i] cancerPLT <-GEO_TCGAtab$Platform[i] fileCancerGEO <- paste0(cancer,"_GEO_",cancerGEO,"_",cancerPLT, ".RData") dataFilt <- getDataGEO(TCGAtumor = cancer) GEOdegs <- DPA(dataConsortium = "GEO", gset = dataFilt , colDescription = "title", samplesType = c(GEO_TCGAtab$GEO_Normal[i], GEO_TCGAtab$GEO_Tumor[i]), fdr.cut = 0.01, logFC.cut = 1, gsetFile = paste0(DataAnalysisGEO,fileCancerGEO)) ``` We can visualize those differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with a volcano plot using the `TCGAVisualize_volcano` function from \Biocpkg{TCGAbiolinks.}. ```{r, eval = TRUE, echo = TRUE} library(TCGAbiolinks) TCGAVisualize_volcano(DEGsmatrix$logFC, DEGsmatrix$FDR, filename = "DEGs_volcano.png", x.cut = 7, y.cut = 10^-5, names = rownames(DEGsmatrix), color = c("black","red","dodgerblue3"), names.size = 2, xlab = " Gene expression fold change (Log2)", legend = "State", title = "Volcano plot (Normal NT vs Tumor TP)", width = 10) ``` The figure generated by the code above is shown below: ```{r, fig.width=6, fig.height=4, echo = FALSE, fig.align="center",hide=TRUE, message=FALSE,warning=FALSE} img <- readPNG("DEGs_volcano.png") grid.raster(img) ``` ## `LPA`: Literature Phenotype Analysis The user can perform a literature phenotype analysis using the function `LPA`, for example for the biological process 'apoptosis'. ```{r, eval = TRUE, echo = TRUE, results='hide'} data(DEGsmatrix) BPselected <- "apoptosis" BPannotations <- DiseaseList[[match(BPselected,names(DiseaseList))]]$ID dataLPA <- LPA(dataDEGs = DEGsmatrix[1:5,], BP = BPselected, BPlist = BPannotations) DiseaseListNew <- dataLPA names(DiseaseListNew) <- BPselected ``` ## `FEA`: Functional Enrichment Analysis The user can perform a functional enrichment analysis using the function `FEAcomplete`.

This score indicates how the genes act in the gene set. ```{r, eval = TRUE, echo = TRUE, results='hide'} data(DEGsmatrix) dataFEA <- FEA(DEGsmatrix = DEGsmatrix) ``` The output can be visualized with a FEA plot. ## `FEAplot`: Functional Enrichment Analysis Plot The user can plot the result of a functional enrichment analysis using the function `plotFEA`. A negative z-score indicates that the process' activity is decreased. A positive z-score indicates that the process' activity is increased. ```{r, eval = TRUE, echo = TRUE, message=FALSE, results='hide', warning=FALSE} plotFEA(dataFEA = dataFEA, additionalFilename = "_exampleVignette", height = 20, width = 10) ``` The figure generated by the above code is shown below: ```{r, fig.width=6, fig.height=4, echo = FALSE, fig.align="center",hide=TRUE, message=FALSE,warning=FALSE} img <- readPNG("FEAplot.png") grid.raster(img) ``` ## `GRN`: Gene Regulatory Network The user can perform a gene regulatory network analysis using the function `GRN` which infers the network using the parmigene package. ```{r, eval = TRUE} dataGRN <- GRN(TFs = rownames(DEGsmatrix)[1:100], normCounts = dataFilt, nGenesPerm = 10,kNearest = 3,nBoot = 10) ``` ## `URA`: Upstream Regulator Analysis The user can perform upstream regulator analysis using the function `URA`.
