# `TCGAanalyze`: Analyze data from TCGA. 
You can easily analyze data using following functions:

## `TCGAanalyze_Preprocessing`: Preprocessing of Gene Expression data (IlluminaHiSeq_RNASeqV2)

You can easily search TCGA samples, download and prepare a matrix of gene expression.
```{r, eval = FALSE}
# You can define a list of samples to query and download providing relative TCGA barcodes.
listSamples <- c("TCGA-E9-A1NG-11A-52R-A14M-07","TCGA-BH-A1FC-11A-32R-A13Q-07",
                 "TCGA-A7-A13G-11A-51R-A13Q-07","TCGA-BH-A0DK-11A-13R-A089-07",
                 "TCGA-E9-A1RH-11A-34R-A169-07","TCGA-BH-A0AU-01A-11R-A12P-07",
                 "TCGA-C8-A1HJ-01A-11R-A13Q-07","TCGA-A7-A13D-01A-13R-A12P-07",
                 "TCGA-A2-A0CV-01A-31R-A115-07","TCGA-AQ-A0Y5-01A-11R-A14M-07")

# Query platform Illumina HiSeq with a list of barcode 
query <- GDCquery(project = "TCGA-BRCA", 
                  data.category = "Gene expression",
                  data.type = "Gene expression quantification",
                  experimental.strategy = "RNA-Seq",
                  platform = "Illumina HiSeq",
                  file.type = "results",
                  barcode = listSamples, 
                  legacy = TRUE)

# Download a list of barcodes with platform IlluminaHiSeq_RNASeqV2
GDCdownload(query)

# Prepare expression matrix with geneID in the rows and samples (barcode) in the columns
# rsem.genes.results as values
BRCARnaseqSE <- GDCprepare(query)

BRCAMatrix <- assay(BRCARnaseqSE,"raw_count") # or BRCAMatrix <- assay(BRCARnaseqSE,"raw_count")

# For gene expression if you need to see a boxplot correlation and AAIC plot to define outliers you can run
BRCARnaseq_CorOutliers <- TCGAanalyze_Preprocessing(BRCARnaseqSE)
```

The result is shown below:

```{r, eval = TRUE, echo = FALSE,size = 8}
library(TCGAbiolinks)
dataGE <- dataBRCA[sample(rownames(dataBRCA),10),sample(colnames(dataBRCA),7)]

knitr::kable(dataGE[1:10,2:3], digits = 2, 
             caption = "Example of a matrix of gene expression (10 genes in rows and 2 samples in columns)",
             row.names = TRUE)

## `TCGAanalyze_DEA` `&` `TCGAanalyze_LevelTab`: Differential expression analysis (DEA)

Perform DEA (Differential expression analysis) to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) using the `TCGAanalyze_DEA` function. 

`TCGAanalyze_DEA` performs DEA using following functions from R \Biocpkg{edgeR}:

1. edgeR::DGEList converts the count matrix into an edgeR object.
2. edgeR::estimateCommonDisp each gene gets assigned the same dispersion estimate.
3. edgeR::exactTest performs pair-wise tests for differential expression between two groups.
4. edgeR::topTags takes the output from exactTest(), adjusts the raw p-values using the False Discovery Rate (FDR) correction, and returns the top differentially expressed genes.

This function receives as arguments:

* **mat1** The matrix of the first group (in the example, group 1 is the normal samples), 
* **mat2** The matrix of the  second group (in the example, group 2 is tumor samples)
* **Cond1type** Label for group 1
* **Cond1type** Label for group 2

Next, we filter the output of dataDEGs by abs(LogFC) >=1, and uses the
`TCGAanalyze_LevelTab` function to create a table with DEGs (differentially expressed genes), log Fold Change (FC), false discovery rate (FDR), the gene expression level for samples in Cond1type, and Cond2type, and Delta value (the difference of gene expression between the two conditions multiplied logFC).

```{r, eval = FALSE}
# Downstream analysis using gene expression data  
# TCGA samples from IlluminaHiSeq_RNASeqV2 with type rsem.genes.results
# save(dataBRCA, geneInfo , file = "dataGeneExpression.rda")
library(TCGAbiolinks)

# normalization of genes
dataNorm <- TCGAanalyze_Normalization(tabDF = dataBRCA, geneInfo =  geneInfo)

# quantile filter of genes
dataFilt <- TCGAanalyze_Filtering(tabDF = dataNorm,
                                  method = "quantile", 
                                  qnt.cut =  0.25)

# selection of normal samples "NT"
samplesNT <- TCGAquery_SampleTypes(barcode = colnames(dataFilt),
                                   typesample = c("NT"))

# selection of tumor samples "TP"
samplesTP <- TCGAquery_SampleTypes(barcode = colnames(dataFilt), 
                                   typesample = c("TP"))

# Diff.expr.analysis (DEA)
dataDEGs <- TCGAanalyze_DEA(mat1 = dataFilt[,samplesNT],
                            mat2 = dataFilt[,samplesTP],
                            Cond1type = "Normal",
                            Cond2type = "Tumor",
                            fdr.cut = 0.01 ,
                            logFC.cut = 1,
                            method = "glmLRT")

# DEGs table with expression values in normal and tumor samples
dataDEGsFiltLevel <- TCGAanalyze_LevelTab(dataDEGs,"Tumor","Normal",
                                          dataFilt[,samplesTP],dataFilt[,samplesNT])

```
The result is shown below:

```{r, eval = TRUE, echo = FALSE}
library(TCGAbiolinks)
dataDEGsFiltLevel$FDR <- format(dataDEGsFiltLevel$FDR, scientific = TRUE)
knitr::kable(dataDEGsFiltLevel[1:10,], digits = 2,

## `TCGAanalyze_EAcomplete & TCGAvisualize_EAbarplot`: Enrichment Analysis

Researchers, in order to better understand the underlying biological processes, 
often want to retrieve a functional profile of a set of genes that might 
have an important role. This can be done by performing an enrichment analysis. 

We will perform an enrichment analysis on gene sets using the `TCGAanalyze_EAcomplete` 
function. 
Given a set of genes that are up-regulated under certain conditions, 
an enrichment analysis will identify classes of genes or proteins that 
are over-represented using annotations for that gene set.


To view the results you can use the `TCGAvisualize_EAbarplot` function as shown below.

```{r, eval = FALSE}
library(TCGAbiolinks)
# Enrichment Analysis EA
# Gene Ontology (GO) and Pathway enrichment by DEGs list
Genelist <- rownames(dataDEGsFiltLevel)

system.time(ansEA <- TCGAanalyze_EAcomplete(TFname="DEA genes Normal Vs Tumor",Genelist))

# Enrichment Analysis EA (TCGAVisualize)
# Gene Ontology (GO) and Pathway enrichment barPlot

TCGAvisualize_EAbarplot(tf = rownames(ansEA$ResBP), 
                        GOBPTab = ansEA$ResBP,
                        GOCCTab = ansEA$ResCC,
                        GOMFTab = ansEA$ResMF,
                        PathTab = ansEA$ResPat,
                        nRGTab = Genelist, 
                        nBar = 10)

```
The result is shown below:
```{r, fig.width=6, fig.height=4, echo=FALSE, fig.align="center"}

library(grid)
img <- readPNG("EAplot.png")
grid.raster(img)
```


The figure shows canonical pathways significantly overrepresented (enriched) by the DEGs 
(differentially expressed genes).
The most statistically significant canonical pathways identified 
in DEGs list are listed according to their p value corrected FDR (-Log) (colored bars) 
and the ratio of list genes found in each pathway over the total number of 
genes in that pathway (Ratio, red line).

## `TCGAanalyze_survival`: Survival Analysis

When analyzing survival, different problems come up than the ones discussed so far. 
One question is how do we deal with subjects dropping out of a
study. For example, assuming that we test a new cancer drug. While some subjects
die, others may believe that the new drug is not effective, and decide to drop out
of the study before the study is finished. A similar problem would be faced when
we investigate how long a machine lasts before it breaks down.

Using the clinical data, it is possible to create a survival plot with the 
function `TCGAanalyze_survival` as follows:

```{r, eval = FALSE}
clin.gbm <- GDCquery_clinic("TCGA-GBM", "clinical")
TCGAanalyze_survival(clin.gbm,
                     "gender",
                     main = "TCGA Set\n GBM",height = 10, width=10)
```

The arguments of `TCGAanalyze_survival` are:

*  **clinical_patient** TCGA Clinical patient with the information days_to_death
*  **clusterCol** Column with groups to plot. This is a mandatory field, 
the caption will be based in this column
*  **legend** Legend title of the figure
*  **xlim** xlim x axis limits e.g. xlim = c(0, 1000). Present narrower X axis, but not affect survival estimates. 
*  **main**	 main title of the plot
*  **ylab**	y-axis text of the plot
*  **xlab** x-axis text of the plot
*  **filename**	 The name of the pdf file
*  **color** Define the colors of the lines.
*  **pvalue** Show pvalue in the plot. 
*  **risk.table** 	Show or not the risk table
*  **conf.int** 	Show confidence intervals for point estimates of survival curves.

The result is shown below:
```{r, fig.width=6, fig.height=4, echo = FALSE, fig.align="center",hide=TRUE, message=FALSE,warning=FALSE}
library(png)
library(grid)
img <- readPNG("case2_surv.png")

}

    rownames(tabSurvKMcomplete) %in% dataDEGsFiltLevel$mRNA,

             digits = 2,
             row.names = TRUE)
```

## `TCGAanalyze_DMR`: Differentially methylated regions Analysis

We will search for differentially methylated CpG sites using the `TCGAanalyze_DMR`
function. In order to find these regions we use the beta-values 
(methylation values ranging from 0.0 to 1.0) to compare two groups. 

First, it calculates the difference between the mean DNA methylation of each group
for each probe. 

Second, it test for differential expression between two groups using the wilcoxon test 
adjusting by the Benjamini-Hochberg method. The default arguments was set to
require a minimum absolute beta-values difference of 0.2 and an adjusted p-value
of < 0.01. 

After these tests, we save a volcano plot (x-axis:diff mean methylation,
y-axis: statistical significance) that will help the user identify the differentially
methylated CpG sites, then the results are saved in a csv file (DMR_results.groupCol.group1.group2.csv) and finally the object is returned with the calculus in the rowRanges.

                        plot.filename = "coad_CIMPHvsCIMPL_metvolcano.png")
```

The output will be a plot such as the figure below. The green dots are the 
probes that are hypomethylated in group 2 compared to group 1, 
while the red dots are the hypermethylated probes in group 2 compared to group 1


```{r, fig.width=6, fig.height=4, echo = FALSE, fig.align="center",hide=TRUE, message=FALSE,warning=FALSE}
library(png)
library(grid)
img <- readPNG("figure5met.png")
grid.raster(img)
```


Also, the `TCGAanalyze_DMR` 
function will save the plot as pdf and return the same SummarizedExperiment
that was given as input with the values of p-value,
p-value adjusted, diffmean and the group it belongs in the graph 
(non significant, hypomethylated, hypermethylated) in the rowRanges. 
The columns will be (where group1 and group2 are the names of the groups): 

* diffmean.group1.group2 (mean.group2 - mean.group1) 
* diffmean.group2.group1 (mean.group1 - mean.group2)
* p.value.group1.group2
* p.value.adj.group1.group2
* status.group1.group2 (Status of probes in group2 in relation to group1) 
* status.group2.group1 (Status of probes in group1 in relation to group2) 

This values can be view/acessed using the `rowRanges` 
acessesor (`rowRanges(data)`).

**Observation:** Calling the same function again, with the same arguments 
will only plot the results,  as it was already calculated. 
If you want to have them recalculated, please set
`overwrite` to `TRUE` or remove the calculated columns.

# `TCGAvisualize`: Visualize results from analysis functions with TCGA's data. 
You can easily visualize results from some following functions:

## `TCGAvisualize_Heatmap`: Create heatmaps with cluster bars

In order to have a better view of clusters, we normally use heatmaps.
`TCGAvisualize_Heatmap` will plot a heatmap and add to each sample bars representing
different features. This function is a wrapper to the package 
[ComplexHeatmap](http://bioconductor.org/packages/ComplexHeatmap/)  package,

The arguments of this function are:


* **data**	The object with the heatmap data (expression, methylation)
* **col.metadata** Metadata for the columns (patients). It should have the column bcr_patient_barcode or patient or ID with the patients barcodes.
* **row.metadata** Metadata for the rows genes (expression) or probes (methylation)
* **col.colors ** A list of names colors
* **row.colors ** A list of named colors
* **show_column_names **	Show column names names? Default: FALSE
* **show_row_names ** Show row names? Default: FALSE
* **cluster_rows ** Cluster rows ? Default: FALSE
* **cluster_columns** Cluster columns ? Default: FALSE
* **sortCol** Name of the column to be used to sort the columns
* **title** Title of the plot
* **type** Select the colors of the heatmap values. Possible values are "expression" (default), "methylation"
* **scale**	Use z-score to make the heamat? If we want to show differences between genes, it is good to make Z-score by samples (force each sample to have zero mean and standard deviation=1). If we want to show differences between samples, it is good to make Z-score by genes (force each gene to have zero mean and standard deviation=1). Possibilities: "row", "col. Default "none"


For more information please take a look on case study #2.

## `TCGAvisualize_starburst`: Integration of gene expression and DNA methylation data 

The starburst plot is proposed to combine information from two volcano plots, 
and is applied for a study of DNA methylation and gene expression. It first introduced in 2010 [@noushmehr2010identification]. In order to
reproduce this plot, we will use the `TCGAvisualize_starburst` function.

The function creates Starburst plot for comparison of DNA methylation
and gene expression. The log10 (FDR-corrected P value) for DNA methylation is plotted in the x axis, and for gene expression in the y axis, for each gene. 
The black dashed line shows the FDR-adjusted P value of 0.01.

The arguments of this function are:

| Argument      | Description |   
|--------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| exp | Object obtained by DEArnaSEQ function |
| group1 | The name of the group 1 Obs: Column p.value.adj.group1.group2 should exist |
| group2 | The name of the group 2. Obs: Column p.value.adj.group1.group2 should exist |
| exp.p.cut | expression p value cut-off |
| met.p.cut | methylation p value cut-off |
| diffmean.cut | If set, the probes with diffmean higher than methylation cut-off will be highlighted in the plot. And the data frame return will be subseted. |
| logFC.cut | If set, the probes with expression fold change higher than methylation cut-off will be highlighted in the plot. And the data frame return will be subseted. |
| met.platform | DNA methylation platform ("27K","450K" or "EPIC") |
| genome | Genome of reference ("hg38" or "hg19") used to identify nearest probes TSS |
| names | Add the names of the significant genes? Default: FALSE |
| names.fill | Names should be filled in a color box? Default: TRUE |
| filename | The filename of the file (it can be pdf, svg, png, etc) |
| return.plot | If true only plot object will be returned (pdf will not be created) |
| ylab | y axis text |
| xlab | x axis text |
| title | main title |
| legend | legend title |
| color | vector of colors to be used in graph |
| label | vector of labels to be used in graph |
| xlim | x limits to cut image |
| ylim | y limits to cut image |
| height | Figure height |
| width | Figure width |
| dpi | Figure dpi |

```{r, eval = FALSE}
starburst <- TCGAvisualize_starburst(coad.SummarizeExperiment, 
                                     different.experssion.analysis.data,
                                     group1 = "CIMP.H",
                                     group2 = "CIMP.L",
                                     met.platform = "450K",
                                     genome = "hg19",
                                     met.p.cut = 10^-5, 
                                     exp.p.cut = 10^-5,
                                     names = TRUE)
```

As a result, the function will a plot the figure below and return a matrix with 
the Gene_symbol and it status in relation to expression (up regulated/down regulated) and to methylation (Hyper/Hypo methylated). The case study 3, shows the complete pipeline
for creating this figure.
