The microarray technology is widely used to identify the differentially expressed genes due to its high throughput capability. The number of replicated microarray chips in each group is usually not abundant. It is an efficient way to borrow information across different genes to improve the parameter estimation which suffers from the limited sample size. In this paper, we use a hierarchical model to describe the dispersion of gene expression profiles and model the variance through the gene expression level via a link function. A heuristic algorithm is proposed to estimate the hyper-parameters and link function. The differentially expressed genes are identified using a multiple testing procedure. Compared to SAM and LIMMA, our proposed method shows a significant superiority in term of detection power as the false discovery rate being controlled.

AbstractVariations of gene expression levels play an important role in tumors. There are numerous methods to identify differentially expressed genes in high-throughput sequencing. Several algorithms endeavor to identify distinctive genetic patterns susceptable to particular diseases. Although these processes have been proved successful, the probability that the number of non-differentially expressed genes measured by false discovery rate (FDR) has a large standard deviation, and the misidentification rate (type I error) grows rapidly when the number of genes to be detected become larger. In this study we developed a new method, Unit Gamma Measurement (UGM), accounting for multiple hypotheses test statistics distribution, which could reduce the dependency problem. Simulated expression profile data and breast cancer RNA-Seq data were utilized to testify the accuracy of UGM. The results show that the number of non-differentially expressed genes identified by the UGM is very close to the real-evidence data, and the UGM also has a smaller standard error, range, quartile range and RMS error. In addition, the UGM can be used to screen many breast cancer-associated genes, such as BRCA1, BRCA2, PTEN, BRIP1, etc., provides better accuracy, robustness and efficiency, the method of identification differentially expressed genes in high-throughput sequencing.
