Dissecting the biological relationship between TCGA miRNA and mRNA sequencing data using MMiRNA-Viewer

Abstract: BackgroundMicroRNAs (miRNA) are short nucleotides that interact with their target genes through 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs). The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) harbors an increasing amount of cancer genome data for both tumor and normal samples. However, there are few visualization tools focusing on concurrently displaying important relationships and attributes between miRNAs and mRNAs of both cancer tumor and normal samples. Moreover, a deep investigation of miRNA-mRNA target and biological relationships acros… Show more

“…The Genomic Data Commons database is a monumental collection of genetic data for cancer research, encompassing The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and other projects, creating an opportunity for revealing new microRNA-mRNA pairs impacting cell proliferation. Indeed, there have been attempts to build tools that could, to a certain degree, automatize the search and were applied to TCGA datasets [20,21]. However, identification of the candidate pairs is a challenging task due to the regulatory complexity and inter-dependence of mRNAs and microRNAs and performing only correlation analysis between differentially expressed mRNAs and microRNAs followed by a network analysis might not be a satisfactory approach.…”

“…We took the significant mRNA-miRNA target pairs obtained from RNA-Seq and miRNA-Seq data for 15 cancer types from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) (http://cancergenome.nih.gov) project. We used a similar approach adopted in our previous study [28,29] to select input pairs. Specifically, we employed a computer C program to calculate the Pearson Correlation Coefficient (CC).…”
