Cytoscape is a free software package for visualizing, modeling, and analyzing molecular and genetic interaction networks. As a key feature, Cytoscape enables biologists to determine and analyze the interconnectivity of a list of genes or proteins. This unit explains how to use Cytoscape to load and navigate biological network information and view mRNA expression profiles and other functional genomics and proteomics data in the context of the network obtained for genes of interest. Additional analyses that can be performed with Cytoscape are also discussed.

This study identifies microRNAs (miRNAs) with significant discriminatory power in distinguishing melanoma from nevus, notably hsa-miR-26a and hsa-miR-211, which have exhibited diagnostic potential with accuracy of 81% and 78% respectively. To enhance diagnostic accuracy, we integrated miRNAs into various machine-learning (ML) models. Incorporating miRNAs with AUC scores above 0.

Background: The RTK-VEGF4 receptor family, which includes VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2, and VEGFR-3, plays a crucial role in tissue regeneration by promoting angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, and recruiting stem cells and immune cells. Machine learning, particularly graph neural networks (GNNs), has shown high accuracy in predicting these interactions. This study aims to predict drug-gene interactions of the RTK-VEGF4 receptor family in periodontal regeneration using graph neural networks.

The expression patterns of microRNA-548 (miR-548) in colorectal tissues have been sufficiently characterized. The aim of this study is to clarify the role of miR-548aa in tumorigenesis, gene targeting, predictive value and its expression levels in tumoral versus adjacent marginal tissues in CRC patients.

Background: Cancer immune responses are generated in secondary lymphoid organs, such as the lymph nodes and tonsils. In the current study, transcriptional profiles of peritumoral tonsillar tissues (PTTs) from oropharyngeal cancers (OPCs) were assessed and compared with those of inflammatory tonsils and regional lymph nodes (rLNs).
Methods: RNA samples of PTTs and rLNs from 13 OPCs, and 4 inflammatory tonsils were subjected to microarray analysis, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identified from 730 nCounter Panel immune-related genes.
