Knowledge based analyses of biological data
| Knowledge base | Methods | Discovery | Ref. |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene Ontology (GO) | Enrichment analysis of miRNA targets. | Over-expression of miR-150-5p could inhibit proliferation, migration, and invasion capability of CCA cells and indicate it contributes to the CCA development and progression. | 53 |
| Genome-MuSiC was used to mapping the mutations to the KEGG and NCI pathways and the pathways were clustered and statistically analyzed based on the mutation frequencies. | Several important pathways were identified were identified altered in ICC | 54 | |
| Connectivity map (CMap), it includes the relationship for drugs, genes and diseases. | A candidate drug is supposed to reverse the gene expression signature of CCA | The HSP90 inhibitor, NVP-AUY922, is screened as a putative effective CCA drug. | 52 |
| Interleukin-6 associated genomic signature in Mz-ChA-1 human malignant cholangiocytes was derived and compounds that induced inverse gene changes to the signature were screened. | Nitrendipine, nifedipine and felodipine that are structurally similar compounds were identified cytotoxic to Mz-ChA-1 cells and could be the potential therapeutic use for CCA. | 55 |
