Bayesian framework (refined version of iRIGS) features
|
Genetic variants in MS
|
200 genetic variants from the currently largest MS GWAS with genome-wide significance
|
Functional Annotation of the Mammalian Genome 5 (FANTOM5)
|
Annotations of mammalian regulatory components, such as promoters, enhancers lncRNAs and miRNAs (provided by original iRIGS analysis)
|
Genome-scale chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C)
|
Brain Hi-C data including both short- and long-range interactions among genomic loci (provided by original iRIGS analysis)
|
Expression in MS brain tissue
|
Differentially expressed genes in MS brain tissue from 21 post-mortem brain samples (11 MS cases and 10 control subjects)
|
DNA methylation in MS brain tissue
|
Differentially methylated genes from epigenome-wide changes in DNA methylation levels of 28 MS cases and 19 control subjects
|
Gene–gene relationships
|
Gene interactions from Gene Ontology (GO) network (provided by original iRIGS analysis)
|
Two-sample Mendelian randomization (2SMR) feature
|
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL)
|
Top cis-eQTL of 19 tissues based on tissue expression data from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) portal
|
Genetic features used in validation
|
Probability of loss of function (LoF) intolerant (pLI) scores
|
A high pLI score indicates the gene is more likely to be intolerant towards protein-truncating variant(s)
|
Evolutionary rate
|
The ratio of nonsynonymous over synonymous substitution rate (dN/dS)
|
Genes of human diseases
|
From OMIM and ClinVar databases
|
Cell type features used in validation
|
Single-nuclei RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq)
|
Cell type-specificity enrichment analysis using a snRNA-seq dataset from the brain tissue of 4 progressive MS patients and 5 non-neurological controls
|
Drug features used in validation
|
MS drug targets
|
32 MS drug targets were collected from the DrugBank database, followed by the enrichment analysis
|
Connectivity Map (CMap) drug signatures
|
The co-expressed gene-set enrichment analysis (Cogena) R package was performed for the downregulated and upregulated 100 CMap gene sets
