A review of bioinformatics tools and web servers in different microarray platforms used in cancer research
الملخص
Over the past decade, conventional lab work strategies have gradually shifted from being limited to a laboratory setting towards a bioinformatics era to help manage and process the vast amounts of data generated by omics technologies. The present work outlines the latest contributions of bioinformatics in analyzing microarray data and their application to cancer. We dissect different microarray platforms and their use in gene expression in cancer models. We highlight how computational advances empowered the microarray technology in gene expression analysis. The study on protein-protein interaction databases classified into primary, derived, meta-database, and prediction databases describes the strategies to curate and predict novel interaction networks in silico. In addition, we summarize the areas of bioinformatics where neural graph networks are currently being used, such as protein functions, protein interaction prediction, and in silico drug discovery and development. We also discuss the role of deep learning as a potential tool in the prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. Integrating these resources efficiently, practically, and ethically is likely to be the most challenging task for the healthcare industry over the next decade; however, we believe that it is achievable in the long term. 2022 Elsevier Inc.
