OUTLINES
MicroRNA (miRNA) and breast cancer.
Next generation sequencing (NGS)
Data analysis
Cancer overview
Cancer is genetic disease
Is a group of diseases characterized by
uncontrolled cell division leading to a growth of
abnormal cells
Oncogenes=accelarators pedals
TS genes=breake pedals
miRNA in Cancer Recently discovered, miRNA is small RNA
molecules that play important roles in gene expression.
These small genes make much smaller RNA that don’t make protein products but they react controlling the expression of other genes
Some new researches showed that miRNA play roles in controlling TS & oncogenes expression!
miRNA in BC
miRNAs dysregulation in BC was first
described in 2005.
Some studies address the potential of miRNAs
as diagnostic marker for BC subtypes and as
prognostic markers for patient outcomes.
Most of these studies were conducted using
microarrays or RT-PCR and thus limited to a
subset of miRNAs.

MicroRNAs
miRNAs regulate many genes critical for
tumorgenesis.
Studies claim expression of miRNA in BC
could unfold mysteries of tumorgenesis
pathways and identify potential prognostic
and diagnostic markers
miRNA & NGS application
Next Generation Sequencing
(NGS)
NGS main steps
Template preparation
Sequencing and imaging
Data analysis
Choose your protocol There is a collection of next-generation sequencing (NGS)
sample preparation protocols, was compiled from the scientific
literature to demonstrate the wide range of scientific questions
that can be addressed by Illumina’s sequencing by synthesis
technology.
it will inspire researchers to use these methods or to develop
new ones to address new scientific challenges.
These methods were developed by users, so readers should
refer to the original publications for detailed descriptions and
protocols.
Which protocol fits your trial!

Material & Methods
Data Generation
Ex: Phenotype Data, Genotype Data, Gene
Expression Data…
Statistical Analysis
Ex: Filtering, software package( WGCNA),
Gene Network mapping, functional
enrichment analysis of network…
Statistical Analysis:1- Filtering
FILTERING METHOD: used to isolate active genes from inactive genes by ranking them according to their expression.
FILTRING CRITERIA:
Mean: ranking genes based on their average level of expression in the population.
Variance: ranking genes based on the variability of their expression.
Sum Covariance: incorporating both diagonal and off-diagonal elements of the covariance matrix of gene expression.
WGCNA Weighted gene co-expression network analysis is a
systems biology method for describing the correlation
patterns among genes across microarray samples.
Weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) can
be used for :
-Finding clusters (modules) of highly correlated
genes,
-Summarizing such clusters using the module
eigengene or an intramodular hub gene,
- Relating modules to one another and to external
sample traits (using eigengene network methodology),
- And for calculating module membership measures

2- Explore and recognize Key
genes by Statistical computing: R
1) Construct a gene co-expression network
- Correlation, topological overlap
2) Identify modules
- Clustering, Dynamic Tree cut
3) Relate modules to external information
- Gene Ontology enrichment, correlation to
phenotype/linkage analyses
2-:Identify models: Clustering

Self-organizing maps
Maximum likelihood/mixture models

(System biology)
Functional enrichment
Interpretation of genome-scale data
often includes looking for the biological
functions that are enriched in lists of
genes.

3:Relate Modules to external
information: Mapping
Mapping clusters to the genome at
different loci:
• High LOD score for cluster (s)
mapped to a lucs!!!
• Physical position of a QTL lucs on
the genome(quantitative trait
lucs)
• SNPs on the QTL
• Correlation analysis of the cluster
with phenotype
Discussing the outcomes
Results
Discussion
Future Plan
More Statistics There are much more steps that by the end give an
initial clues, guiding the researcher to shift in system
biology
Further investigations: Again to
trails!!
