Construction and Analysis of the Tumor-Specific mRNA-miRNA-lncRNA Network in Gastric Cancer.

TL;DR: A 12-gene signature from both prognosis-related and tumor-specific genes was developed, and a ceRNA network was constructed based on the genes in this model, which may provide novel insights into the treatment of gastric cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Several miRNAs derived from serum extracellular vesicles are potential biomarkers for early diagnosis and progression of Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper used weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) to identify the commonly expressed miRNAs in all stages of Parkinson's disease by constructing connections between modules, and specifically expressed miRNA in each stage of PD by functional enrichment analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identifying potential gene biomarkers for Parkinson's disease through an information entropy based approach.

TL;DR: This work used a publicly available substantia nigra microarray dataset, GSE20163, from NCBI GEO database, containing gene expression profiles for 10 PD patients and 18 normal controls to identify two gene communities that discriminated between the two groups with mean accuracy, and validated the results on an independent microarray experiment.

Hierarchical Organization of Modularity in Metabolic Networks

TL;DR: It is shown that the metabolic networks of 43 distinct organisms are organized into many small, highly connected topologic modules that combine in a hierarchical manner into larger, less cohesive units, with their number and degree of clustering following a power law.
