RFCM3: Computational Method for Identification of miRNA-mRNA Regulatory Modules in Cervical Cancer.

Cervical cancer is a leading severe malignancy throughout the world. Molecular processes and biomarkers leading to tumor progression in cervical cancer are either unknown or only partially understood. An increasing number of studies have shown that microRNAs play an important role in tumorigenesis so understanding the regulatory mechanism of miRNAs in gene-regulatory network will help elucidate the complex biological processes that occur during malignancy. Identification of miRNA-mRNA regulatory modules will aid deciphering aberrant transcriptional regulatory network in cervical cancer but is computationally challenging. In this regard,an algorithm, termed as relevant and functionally consistent miRNA-mRNA modules (RFCM3), is proposed. It integrates miRNA and mRNA expression data of cervical cancer for identification of potential miRNA-mRNA modules. It selects a miRNA-mRNA module by maximizing relation of mRNAs with miRNA and functional similarity between selected mRNAs. Later using the knowledge of miRNA-miRNA synergistic network different modules are fused and finally a set of modules are generated containing several miRNAs as well as mRNAs. The effectiveness of the proposed approach over other existing methods has been demonstrated on a miRNA and mRNA expression data of cervical cancer with respect to enrichment analyses and other standard metrices.
