RESUMO

Individual Specific Networks (ISNs) are a tool used in computational biology to infer Individual Specific relationships between biological entities from omics data. ISNs provide insights into how the interactions among these entities affect their respective functions. To address the scarcity of solutions for efficiently computing ISNs on large biological datasets, we present ISN-tractor, a data-agnostic, highly optimized Python library to build and analyse ISNs. ISN-tractor demonstrates superior scalability and efficiency in generating Individual Specific Networks (ISNs) when compared to existing methods such as LionessR, both in terms of time and memory usage, allowing ISNs to be used on large datasets. We show how ISN-tractor can be applied to real-life datasets, including The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and HapMap, showcasing its versatility. ISN-tractor can be used to build ISNs from various -omics data types, including transcriptomics, proteomics, and genotype arrays, and can detect distinct patterns of gene interactions within and across cancer types. We also show how Filtration Curves provided valuable insights into ISN characteristics, revealing topological distinctions among individuals with different clinical outcomes. Additionally, ISN-tractor can effectively cluster populations based on genetic relationships, as demonstrated with Principal Component Analysis on HapMap data.

RESUMO

Introduction: Multi-view data offer advantages over single-view data for characterizing individuals, which is crucial in precision medicine toward personalized prevention, diagnosis, or treatment follow-up. Methods: Here, we develop a network-guided multi-view clustering framework named netMUG to identify actionable subgroups of individuals. This pipeline first adopts sparse multiple canonical correlation analysis to select multi-view features possibly informed by extraneous data, which are then used to construct individual-specific networks (ISNs). Finally, the individual subtypes are automatically derived by hierarchical clustering on these network representations. Results: We applied netMUG to a dataset containing genomic data and facial images to obtain BMI-informed multi-view strata and showed how it could be used for a refined obesity characterization. Benchmark analysis of netMUG on synthetic data with known strata of individuals indicated its superior performance compared with both baseline and benchmark methods for multi-view clustering. The clustering derived from netMUG achieved an adjusted Rand index of 1 with respect to the synthesized true labels. In addition, the real-data analysis revealed subgroups strongly linked to BMI and genetic and facial determinants of these subgroups. Discussion: netMUG provides a powerful strategy, exploiting individual-specific networks to identify meaningful and actionable strata. Moreover, the implementation is easy to generalize to accommodate heterogeneous data sources or highlight data structures.

RESUMO

Individual-specific networks, defined as networks of nodes and connecting edges that are specific to an individual, are promising tools for precision medicine. When such networks are biological, interpretation of functional modules at an individual level becomes possible. An under-investigated problem is relevance or "significance" assessment of each individual-specific network. This paper proposes novel edge and module significance assessment procedures for weighted and unweighted individual-specific networks. Specifically, we propose a modular Cook's distance using a method that involves iterative modeling of one edge versus all the others within a module. Two procedures assessing changes between using all individuals and using all individuals but leaving one individual out (LOO) are proposed as well (LOO-ISN, MultiLOO-ISN), relying on empirically derived edges. We compare our proposals to competitors, including adaptions of OPTICS, kNN, and Spoutlier methods, by an extensive simulation study, templated on real-life scenarios for gene co-expression and microbial interaction networks. Results show the advantages of performing modular versus edge-wise significance assessments for individual-specific networks. Furthermore, modular Cook's distance is among the top performers across all considered simulation settings. Finally, the identification of outlying individuals regarding their individual-specific networks, is meaningful for precision medicine purposes, as confirmed by network analysis of microbiome abundance profiles.
