Disease biomarker identification from gene network modules for metastasized breast cancer
Abstract Advancement in science has tended to improve treatment of fatal diseases such as cancer. A major concern in the area is the spread of cancerous cells, technically refered to as metastasis into other organs beyond the primary organ. Treatment in such a stage of cancer is extremely difficult...

Abstract Advancement in science has tended to improve treatment of fatal diseases such as cancer. A major concern in the area is the spread of cancerous cells, technically refered to as metastasis into other organs beyond the primary organ. Treatment in such a stage of cancer is extremely difficult and usually palliative only. In this study, we focus on finding gene-gene network modules which are functionally similar in nature in the case of breast cancer. These modules extracted during the disease progression stages are analyzed using p-value and their associated pathways. We also explore interesting patterns associated with the causal genes, viz., SCGB1D2, MET, CYP1B1 and MMP9 in terms of expression similarity and pathway contexts. We analyze the genes involved in both the stages– non metastasis and metastatsis and change in their expression values, their associated pathways and roles as the disease progresses from one stage to another.
