Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identify genetic variants underlying complex traits but are limited by stringent genome-wide significance thresholds. We present GRIN (Gene set Refinement through Interacting Networks), which increases confidence in the expanded gene set by retaining genes strongly connected by biological networks when GWAS thresholds are relaxed. GRIN was validated on both simulated interrelated gene sets as well as multiple GWAS traits. From multiple GWAS summary statistics of suicide attempt, a complex phenotype, GRIN identified additional genes that replicated across independent cohorts and retained biologically interrelated genes despite a relaxed significance threshold. We present a conceptual model of how these retained genes interact through neurobiological pathways that may influence suicidal behavior, and identify existing drugs associated with these pathways that would not have been identified under traditional GWAS thresholds. We demonstrate GRIN’s utility in boosting GWAS results by increasing the number of true positive genes identified from GWAS results. Using the software GRIN, GWAS results are refined by reducing false positive genes using biological network topology, allowing users to lower GWAS significance thresholds to identify additional genes associated with complex traits

  • Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
  • We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
  • We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
  • The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
  • Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance

要点】:本文提出了一种新的基因分析工具GRIN,通过利用生物网络中的基因互作信息,提高了GWAS在放松阈值时对复杂性状相关基因的识别准确性,发现了与自杀行为相关的额外基因。

方法】:研究采用GRIN方法,该方法在放松GWAS阈值时,通过保留生物网络中紧密连接的基因,增强了对扩展基因集的置信度。

实验】:通过在模拟的互相关基因集以及多个GWAS性状上进行验证,GRIN在多个自杀尝试的GWAS汇总统计数据中识别出额外的基因,这些基因在独立队列中得到了复制,并在放松显著性阈值的情况下保持了生物学上的互相关性。实验结果还展示了一个概念模型,说明了这些保留的基因如何通过神经生物学途径相互作用,可能影响自杀行为,并识别了与这些途径相关的现有药物。使用GRIN软件,通过降低假阳性基因的数量,提高了GWAS结果的真实阳性基因识别数量。文中未具体提及使用的数据集名称。
