Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biomedicine, and in particular to a method, device, computer equipment and storage medium for screening HGT tumor markers. Background Art

[0002] Colorectal cancer (CRC) develops slowly and is considered the second eradicable tumor because of its relatively clear pathogenesis and early detection through screening. However, colorectal cancer develops slowly and its early manifestations are atypical, so it is easy to be confused with other gastrointestinal diseases, and the opportunity for early diagnosis is missed.

[0003] The existing colorectal cancer screening method usually uses tumor markers to indirectly determine the probability of colorectal cancer, and there are roughly the following types of tumor marker screening. The first is colonoscopy, which is an invasive examination that may cause perforation or mucosal tissue damage, and has a high rate of missed diagnosis. The second is intestinal cell DNA analysis in feces. Since intestinal cells are extracted from feces, the process requirements are high, and the extraction environment is prone to damage to intestinal cells, and the sensitivity to some tumors is poor, so the accuracy rate is not high.

The terminal 110 can be a desktop terminal or a mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal can be at least one of a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, etc. The server 120 can be implemented as an independent server or a server cluster composed of multiple servers.

[0075] The HGT tumor marker screening method of the present invention is applied to the terminal 110 and / or the server 120 .

[0076] HGT (horizontal gene transfer), also known as lateral gene transfer, refers to the exchange of genetic material between different biological individuals or between organelles within a single cell, rather than vertical transmission from parents to offspring.

[0077] HGT plays a key role in the evolution of microorganisms such as bacteria, and common pathways include conjugation, transduction, and transformation. Through HGT, bacteria can quickly acquire multiple genes. HGT events can also be called HGT breakpoints, which refer to the specific locations where genes are inserted or transferred during HGT events. A horizontally transferred DNA fragment can have multiple different insertion locations in the recipient genome, and these locations are called HGT events.

[0084] Step 260: Obtain the HGT tumor marker probability of the subject to be screened according to the second HGT event and the standard HGT event.

[0085] The method of the embodiment of the present invention extracts base sequences from microorganisms and obtains HGT events from gene sequences. Since there are a large number of intestinal microorganisms in the human intestine, horizontal gene transfer will occur between human intestinal cells and intestinal microorganisms. If there is a tumor in the human colorectal intestine, the genetic material of the colorectal cancer tumor will be horizontally transferred to the bacteria and other microorganisms in the colorectal intestine. The method of the present invention obtains the probability of HGT tumor markers of the object to be screened by analyzing the HGT events of the microorganisms. In the embodiment of the present invention, the intestinal microorganisms are extracted from feces, which is non-invasive, so the human intestine will not be damaged, and there will be no adverse effects on human health.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present invention, in step 240, normalizing the first HGT event to obtain a normalized first HGT event includes:

[0087] According to the target gene sequence, obtaining a likelihood function of a first HGT event;

[0101] In the embodiment of the present invention, in step 260, obtaining the HGT tumor marker probability of the subject to be screened according to the second HGT event and the standard HGT event includes:

[0102] Inputting the second HGT event into the HGT model to obtain the HGT tumor marker probability of the subject to be screened;

[0103] Before obtaining the HGT tumor marker probability of the subject to be screened according to the second HGT event and the standard HGT event, the method further includes:

[0104] Construct an initial probability model;

[0105] Acquire a training sample and a validation sample, wherein the training sample includes a training HGT event and a training sample probability, and the validation sample includes a validation HGT event and a validation sample probability;

[0106] According to the standard HGT event, obtaining differential HGT from the training samples;

[0107] Obtaining a difference sample corresponding to the difference HGT;

[0108] Training the initial probability model according to the difference samples to obtain a model to be verified;

[0109] Verifying the model to be verified according to the verification sample;

[0110] The model to be verified that has passed the verification is used as the HGT model.

[0111] In the embodiment of the present invention, the training samples include training HGT events and training sample probabilities, and the verification samples include verification HGT events and verification sample probabilities;

[0112] The obtaining of training samples and verification samples comprises:

[0113] Obtaining sample microorganisms of a plurality of samples and a sample probability corresponding to each of the sample microorganisms;

[0114] Obtaining a sample gene sequence of each of the sample microorganisms;

[0115] Obtaining initial HGT events from the sample gene sequences;

[0116] Normalizing and reliably verifying the initial HGT events to obtain sample HGT events;

[0117] Dividing the sample HGT events into training HGT events and verification HGT events according to a preset ratio;

[0118] Obtaining the training samples according to the training HGT events and corresponding sample probabilities;

[0119] The verification sample is obtained according to the verification HGT event and the corresponding sample probability.

[0120] In the embodiment of the present invention, in step 260, the HGT tumor marker probability of the subject to be screened is obtained according to the second HGT event and the standard HGT event in the following manner:

[0121] According to multiple decision trees, multiple reference probabilities are obtained;

[0122] Obtaining an average of a plurality of the reference probabilities as the HGT tumor marker probability of the subject to be screened;

[0123] The method of obtaining the HGT tumor marker probability of the subject to be screened is as follows:

[0124]

[0125]

[0126]

[0127] x is the HGT vector corresponding to the second HGT event, y is the species abundance vector, x and y are used to construct the decision tree, i, j, γ, δ, ζ, η, μ are hyperparameters,

[0128] M is the adjacency matrix between the second HGT event graph and the standard HGT event graph, I is the identity matrix, U is the pseudo-technical matrix, H is the adjacency matrix between the second HGT event graph and the standard HGT event graph, C is the adjacency matrix between the second HGT event abundance graph and the standard event abundance graph,

[0129] P t (CRC) is the t-th reference probability, T is the number of decision trees, and P(CRC) is the HGT tumor marker probability of the subject to be screened.

[0131] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the probability of HGT tumor markers of the screening object is obtained through a decision tree, two graphs can be constructed to represent different microbial characteristics. The first graph is constructed based on HGT events, that is, the above-mentioned HGT event graph. In this graph, each vertex represents a species or genus, and each edge indicates that a gene exchange event has occurred between the two species or genera in the sample. This means that if there is gene transfer between two species, they will be connected by an edge in the graph.

[0132] The second graph is constructed based on abundance correlation, which is the HGT event abundance graph mentioned above. In this graph, each vertex also represents a species or genus, but each edge indicates that there is a significant correlation between the abundance of these two species or genera. Specifically, if the Pearson correlation coefficient of the abundance of two species is greater than 0.3, they will be connected by an edge in the graph. For each pair of taxa, we use the Python module Scipy to calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient of the abundance values ​​between the samples. The adjacency matrix, identity matrix and pseudo count matrix of the two graphs are used to correct the abundance values.

[0133] The screening method for HGT tumor markers of the embodiment of the present invention actually obtains a probability. The standard HGT event can be an HGT event of the gene sequence of a completely healthy sample microorganism, and can also include an HGT event of the gene sequence of a sample microorganism that has been diagnosed with a tumor. The probability of the tumor marker can be obtained by the similarity or difference / distinction between the HGT of the object to be screened and the HGT of the standard sample. The embodiment of the present invention obtains a probability, not a conclusion, but through probability, early and very early screening can be achieved.
