Driver event discovery is important for breast cancer diagnosis and therapy, especially in determining subtype-specific drivers for personalized biomarker discovery and precision treatment. However, most existing studies mainly focus on DNA aberrations and gene interactions, and the integration of multi-type aberrations from both DNA and RNA remains a challenge for breast cancer drivers.
Driver event discovery is a crucial demand for breast cancer diagnosis and therapy. In particular, discovering subtype-specificity of drivers can prompt the personalized biomarker discovery and precision treatment of cancer patients. Still, most of the existing computational driver discovery studies mainly exploit the information from DNA aberrations and gene interactions. Notably, cancer driver events would occur due to not only DNA aberrations but also RNA alternations, but integrating multi-type aberrations from both DNA and RNA is still a challenging task for breast cancer drivers. On the one hand, the data formats of different aberration types also differ from each other, known as data format incompatibility. On the other hand, different types of aberrations demonstrate distinct patterns across samples, known as aberration type heterogeneity. To promote the integrated analysis of subtype-specific breast cancer drivers, we design a splicing-and-fusing framework to address the issues of data format incompatibility and aberration type heterogeneity simultaneously. To overcome the data format incompatibility, the splicing-step employs a knowledge graph structure to connect multi-type aberrations from the DNA and RNA data into a unified formation. To tackle the aberration type heterogeneity, the fusing-step adopts a dynamic mapping gene space integration approach to represent the multi-type information by vectorized profiles. The experiments also demonstrate the advantages of our approach in both the integration of multi-type aberrations from DNA and RNA and the discovery of subtype-specific breast cancer drivers. In summary, our splicing-and-fusing framework with knowledge graph connection and dynamic mapping gene space fusion of multi-type aberrations data from DNA and RNA can successfully discover potential breast cancer drivers with subtype-specificity indication.
