2.4.1 Approaches for Analysis of Gene Expression
The following methods and high throughput approaches have been used for analysis of gene expression
1 Microarrays: It is a very effective tool for analysis of gene expression. Microarray has been used for comparison of the same set of genes in different conditions, or in different cells or in same cells in different timings. Microarray has been used for analysis of gene expression on a large scale. It is act usually comparative study. It has been used for tens of thousands of target gene comparisons at one time. In different sets of conditions with the same set of genes expressed differently, microarray has been used to predict the different expression of the same set of genes in different conditions. It gives an idea about a particular set of get for their up regulation or down regulation when compared with standard one. Therefore relative expression levels between the two populations can be calculated. This high throughput approach allows for large scale screening of gene pathways or disease-related gene families. It provides a useful approach in disease-prognosis and disease diagnosis studies. It is a very effective method to determine the effects of chemicals or drugs on biological processes in pharmaceutical research.
Microarray has been used for analyzing large amounts of genes which have either been recorded previously or new samples. Microarray is a very sensitive technique. It can detect even a single nucleotide change in a given gene. This highly precise determination of a single nucleotide change or SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) via microarray make this approach very useful applicable to identify strains of viruses, to identify mutation in cancer cells and subsequently facilitate disease’s treatment
2 Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE) SAGE is an important quantization technique for determination of gene expression. The principle of SAGE is based on counting of the number of tags in a particular gene. The total number of gene tags gives a strong idea for how much gene is expressed or how much abundance of gene product will be there in cell. The total number of tags would give an idea to predict the abundance of a gene product.
3 Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) NGS is another technology used for gene expression analysis. RNA-Seq is an efficient technology. Millions of random position reads could be measured and compared with the help of NGS. Data can be used to map and align to each gene, in this way NGS provides an analysis of gene expression at a remarkable level of detail.
4 Real Time Reverse Trancriptase PCR (RT-PCR) Real time reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-qPCR) is another powerful approach for determination of high throughput gene expression analyses and for the analysis of moderate numbers of genes. It can detect accurate relative and in some cases absolute quantity of cDNA in a sample. RT-PCR is accurately used for qualitative and quantitative interpretation of gene expression. It is gold standard method for analysis of gene expression. Depending upon the experiment design, overall workflow and analysis techniques RT-qPCR gives efficient results. For getting 100% PCR efficiency, a number of models, software programs and calculation approaches are there. Depending upon the numbers or type of reference genes used for normalization and calculation methods RT-PCR results may vary. Once relative expression levels have been calculated, appropriate statistical analysis is used to ensure any conclusions drawn from the data. Conclusion can be made to find out if the data is biologically relevant.
Tasks of the nature that requires human intelligence is aided by Artificial intelligence (AI) installed in the software and hardware of the computer system. Multiple advancement has been achieved in deep learning algorithms, the graphic processing units (GPI) which has revolutionized its medical and clinical applications. In Advances in AI soft-ware and hardware, especially deep learning algorithms and the graphics processing units (GPUs) that power their training, have led to a recent and rapidly increasing interest in medical and clinical applications. In clinical diagnostics, AI-based computer vision approaches are poised to revolutionize image-based diagnostics, while other AI subtypes have begun to show similar promise in various diagnostic modalities. In case of clinical genomics, a specific type of AI algorithm known as deep learning is used to process large and complex genomic datasets to predict certain outcomes. These analyses are done based on large amount of data which is beyond human capability thus helping in prognosis, diagnosis and therapeutics.
2.4.2 Applications of Gene Expression Analysis
Applications of gene expression involve the comparative analysis. Analysis of relative expression of same set of gene in different conditions is main applications of the high throughput approaches. The important and useful comparative analyses are mentioned below:
1 a) The comparative expression pattern of same set of genes in mutant and wild type
2 b) The analysis of gene expression in disease and control one
3 c) For time point comparison between the same set of gene during any drug treatment or during development
4 d) The comparison of same set of gene expression in different tissues or organs
5 e) To determine drug efficacy by relative comparison of same set of genes in control and treated with a particular drug.
In case of medical and clinical diagnostics study of gene expression plays a very important role, as any change be it under-expression, over-expression or loss of function plays a role in various disease etiology. So, it is really important to equip our clinicians, pathologist and the researchers with such advanced computing devices to come to a valid and informed conclusion related to disease condition. Such result interprets health data arising from a large set of unstructured data form for example the identification or forecasting of a disease state.
AI interpretation tasks related to clinical aspect can be grouped into various classes of which includes computer vision, time series analysis, speech recognition, and natural language processing. Each of these problems is well suited to address specific types of clinical diagnostic tasks [20].
1 a) Computer vision is useful for the interpretation of radiological images; time series analysis is useful for the analysis of continuously streaming health data such as those provided by an electrocardiogram [21].
2 b) Speech-recognition techniques can be used for detection of neurological disorders [22].
3 c) AI-based natural language processing can be helpful in the extraction of meaningful information from electronic health record (EHR) data [23].
4 d) These techniques also aid in analysing areas which are not very obvious such as regulation of genome.
AI aided systems can identify functional regulatory elements present in the human genome, where they can be used to identify recurrent motifs in DNA sequences in a manner analogous to that in which pixel patterns are detected in images by convolutional neural networks [24] AI algorithm deep learning is able to interpret features from large and complex datasets by using deep neural network architectures. Neural networks are computational systems of artificial neurons (also called ‘nodes’) that transmit signals to one another, often in interconnected layers as neurons in a human body do. In such computational systems there are layers known as hidden layers which are not the input or the output layer. A deep neural network consists СКАЧАТЬ
