Pathway and Network Analysis Service

Cancer Stem Cell program

The Pathway and Network Analysis Service is freely available to all Cancer Stem Cell program members. High-throughput genomic experiments (e.g. gene expression, protein expression, molecular interactions, large-scale genetic screens and other omics data) lead to the identification of large gene lists. The interpretation of results and the formulation of consistent biological hypotheses from these gene lists are challenging. Computational approaches can aid interpretation by relating the gene lists to knowledge about the biological system. To help researchers interpret their results, we are developing a new consulting and analysis service for pathway and network analysis. Analysis will be conducted in close collaboration with researchers on each project (Cancer Stem Cell research program) to ensure correct input data and effective interpretation of results.

- Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) is a computational method that determines whether an a priori defined set of genes shows statistically significant, concordant differences between two biological states (e.g. phenotypes). We use GSEA at the first analysis step. As we will perform this analysis for you, you don"t need to download GSEA.

http://www.cytoscape.org/:
- Cytoscape is an open source bioinformatics software platform for visualizing molecular interaction networks and biological pathways and integrating these networks with annotations, gene expression profiles and other state data

http://baderlab.org/EnrichmentMap
- Enrichment Map is a visualization method for gene set enrichment results which helps quickly find general functional themes in genomics data. Enrichment Map works as a plug-in for Cytoscape. To install it, download the zipped file, move it to the Cytoscape plugin directory and unzip it.
