Abstract: A critical component in the interpretation of systems-level studies is the inference of enriched biological pathways and protein complexes contained within OMICs datasets Successful analysis requires the integration of a broad set of current biological databases and the application of a robust analytical pipeline to produce readily interpretable results Metascape is a web-based portal designed to provide a comprehensive gene list annotation and analysis resource for experimental biologists In terms of design features, Metascape combines functional enrichment, interactome analysis, gene annotation, and membership search to leverage over 40 independent knowledgebases within one integrated portal Additionally, it facilitates comparative analyses of datasets across multiple independent and orthogonal experiments Metascape provides a significantly simplified user experience through a one-click Express Analysis interface to generate interpretable outputs Taken together, Metascape is an effective and efficient tool for experimental biologists to comprehensively analyze and interpret OMICs-based studies in the big data era

TL;DR: In this paper , Dimethyl itaconate (DI) is used to prevent cognitive decline in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced cognitive impairment and is closely associated with neurodegenerative diseases.
Innovative breakthroughs facilitated by single-cell multi-omics: manipulating natural killer cell functionality correlates with a novel subcategory of melanoma cells
TL;DR: In this paper , a single-cell multi-omics analysis on human melanoma cells was performed to explore the modulation of NK cell activity, and the results of AUCell, GSEA, and GSVA suggested that C4 Melanoma CORO1A may be more sensitive to NK and T cells through positive regulation of NK-and T-mediated immunity, while other subtypes of melanoma might be more resistant to NK cells.

TL;DR: In this article , double homeobox 4 (DUX4) is expressed at the early pre-implantation stage in human embryos and it is shown that induced human DUX4 expression substantially alters the chromatin accessibility of non-coding DNA and activates thousands of newly identified transcribed enhancer-like regions, preferentially located within ERVL-MaLR repeat elements.

TL;DR: The goal of the Gene Ontology Consortium is to produce a dynamic, controlled vocabulary that can be applied to all eukaryotes even as knowledge of gene and protein roles in cells is accumulating and changing.
A Coefficient of agreement for nominal Scales
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a procedure for having two or more judges independently categorize a sample of units and determine the degree, significance, and significance of the units. But they do not discuss the extent to which these judgments are reproducible, i.e., reliable.
Systematic and integrative analysis of large gene lists using DAVID bioinformatics resources.
