July 28th 2024: ActivePathways version 2.0.5 is now available on CRAN and GitHub that fixes a minor bug on exporing unfiltered results as CSV files. The major update 2.0 provides the directional p-value merging (DPM) method described in our recent publication.
ActivePathways is a tool for multivariate pathway enrichment analysis that identifies gene sets, such as pathways or Gene Ontology terms, that are over-represented in a list or matrix of genes. ActivePathways uses a data fusion method to combine multiple omics datasets, prioritises genes based on the significance and direction of signals from the omics datasets, and performs pathway enrichment analysis of these prioritised genes. We can find pathways and genes supported by single or multiple omics datasets, as well as additional genes and pathways that are only apparent through data integration and remain undetected in any single dataset alone.
The new version of ActivePathways is described in our recent publication.

The simplest use of ActivePathways requires only a data table and a GMT file. The data table is a matrix of p-values of genes/transcripts/proteins as rows and omics datasets as columns. it also needs a list of gene sets in the form of a GMT (Gene Matrix Transposed) file.
-
The data table must be a numerical matrix. For a single gene list, a one-column matrix can be used. The matrix cannot contain any missing values, and one conservative option is to re-assign all missing values as 1s, indicating our confidence that the missing P-values are always insignificant. Alternatively, one may consider removing genes with NA values.
-
Gene sets in the form of a GMT file can be acquired from multiple sources such as Gene Ontology, Reactome and others. For better accuracy and statistical power these pathway databases should be combined. Acquiring an up-to-date GMT file is essential to avoid using unreliable outdated annotations (see this paper).

ActivePathways 2.0 extends our integrative pathway analysis framework significantly. Users can now provide directional assumptions of input omics datasets for more accurate analyses. This allows us to prioritise genes and pathways where certain directional assumptions are met, and penalise those where the assumptions are violated.
For example, fold-change in protein expression would be expected to associate positively with mRNA fold-change of the corresponding gene, while negative associations would be unexpected and indicate more-complex situations or potential false positives. We can instruct the pathway analysis to prioritise positively-associated protein/mRNA pairs and penalise negative associations (or vice versa).
Two additional inputs are included in ActivePathways that allow diverse multi-omics analyses. These inputs are optional.
The scores_direction and constraints_vector parameters are provided in the merge_p_values() and ActivePathways() functions to incorporate this directional penalty into the data fusion and pathway enrichment analyses.
The parameter constraints_vector is a vector that allows the user to represent the expected relationship between the input omics datasets. The vector size is n_datasets. Values include +1, -1, and 0. The constraints_vector should reflect the expected relative directional relationship between datasets. For example, the constraints_vector values c(-1,1) and c(1,-1) are functionally identical. When combining datasets that contain both directional datatypes (eg gene or protein expression, gene promoter methylation) and non-directional datatypes (eg gene mutational burden, ChIP-seq), we can define the relative relationship between directional datatypes with the values 1 and -1 while setting the value of non-directional datatypes to 0.
The parameter scores_direction is a matrix that reflects the directions that the genes/transcripts/protein show in the data. The matrix size is n_genes * n_datasets, that is the same size as the P-value matrix. This is a numeric matrix, but only the signs of the values are accounted for.

To explore how changes on the individual gene level impact biological pathways, we can compare results before and after incorporating a directional penalty.

To visualise differences in biological pathways between ActivePathways analyses with or without a directional penalty, we combine both outputs into a single enrichment map for plotting.
More thorough documentation of the ActivePathways function can be found in R with ?ActivePathways, and complete tutorials can be found with browseVignettes(package='ActivePathways').
Cytoscape provides powerful tools to visualise the enriched pathways from ActivePathways as a network (i.e., an enrichment map). ActivePathways provides the files needed for building enrichment maps in Cytoscape. To create these files, supply a file prefix to the argument cytoscape_file_tag in the ActivePathways() function. The prefix can be a path to an existing writable directory.
res <- ActivePathways(scores, fname_GMT, cytoscape_file_tag = "enrichmentMap__")
Four files are written using the prefix:
-
enrichmentMap__pathways.txt: a table of significant terms and the associated adjusted P-values. Terms include molecular pathways, biological processes, and other gene sets. Note that only terms withadjusted_p_val <= significantare written. -
enrichmentMap__subgroups.txt: a matrix indicating which columns of the input matrix (i.e., which omics datasets) contributed to the discovery of each pathway. These values correspond to theevidenceevaluation of input omics datasets discussed above. A value of one indicates the pathway was also detectable using a specific input omics dataset. A value of zero indicates otherwise. This file will be not generated if the input matrix is a single-column matrix of scores (just one omics dataset). -
enrichmentMap__pathways.gmt: a shortened version of the supplied GMT file, containing only the significant pathways detected byActivePathways. -
enrichmentMap__legend.pdf: a pdf file containing a legend, with colors corresponding to the different omics datasets visualised in the enrichment map. This can be used as a reference to the generated enrichment map.
Pathway enrichment analysis often leads to complex and redundant results. Enrichment maps are network-based visualisations of pathway enrichment analyses. Enrichment maps can be generated in the Cytoscape software using the EnrichmentMap app. The enhancedGraphics app is also required. See the vignette for details: browseVignettes(package='ActivePathways').
- Cytoscape, see https://cytoscape.org/download.html
- EnrichmentMap app of Cytoscape, see menu Apps>App manager or https://apps.cytoscape.org/apps/enrichmentmap
- EnhancedGraphics app of Cytoscape, see menu Apps>App manager or https://apps.cytoscape.org/apps/enhancedGraphics
- Open the Cytoscape software.
- Select Apps -> EnrichmentMap.
- In the following dialogue, click the button
+Add Data Set from Files in the top left corner of the dialogue. - Change the Analysis Type to Generic/gProfiler/Enrichr.
- Upload the files
enrichmentMap__pathways.txtandenrichmentMap__pathways.gmtin the Enrichments and GMT fields, respectively. - Click the checkbox Show Advanced Options and set Cutoff to 0.6.
- Then click Build in the bottom-right corner to create the enrichment map.
The third file enrichmentMap__subgroups.txt needs to be imported to Cytoscape directly in order to color nodes (i.e. terms) according to their source omics datasets. To import the file, select the menu option File -> Import -> Table from File and select the file enrichmentMap__subgroups.txt. In the following dialogue, select To a Network Collection in the dropdown menu Where to Import Table Data. Click OK to proceed.
Cytoscape uses the imported information to color nodes like a pie chart. To enable this click the Style tab in the left control panel and select the Image/Chart1 Property in a series of dropdown menus (Properties -> Paint -> Custom Paint 1 -> Image/Chart 1).
The Image/Chart 1 property now appears in the Style control panel. Click the triangle on the right, then set the Column to instruct and the Mapping Type to Passthrough Mapping.
This step colours the nodes corresponding to the enriched pathways according to the supporting omics datasets, based on the scores matrix initially analysed in ActivePathways.
ActivePathways generates a color legend in the file enrichmentMap__legend.pdf that shows which colors correspond to which omics datasets.
Note that one of the colors corresponds to a subset of enriched pathways with combined evidence. These terms were only detected through data fusion and P-value merging, and not with any of the input datasets individually. This exemplifies the added value of integrative multi-omics pathway enrichment analysis.
From the drop-down Properties menu, select Border Line Type.
Set Column to directional impact and Mapping Type to Discrete Mapping. Now we can compare findings between a non-directional and a directional method. We highlight pathways that were shared (0), lost (1), and gained (2) between the approaches. Here, we have solid lines for the shared pathways, dots for the lost pathways, and vertical lines for the gained pathways. Border widths can be adjusted in the Border Width property, again with discrete mapping.
This step changes node borders in the aggregated enrichment map, depicting the additional information provided by directional impact.
For a more diverse range of colors, ActivePathways supports any color palette from RColorBrewer. The color_palette parameter must be provided.

cytoscape_file_tag = "enrichmentMap__",
color_palette = "Pastel1")
Alternatively, the custom_colors parameter can be specified as a vector to manually input the color of each dataset. This vector should contain the same number of colors as columns in the scores matrix.
res <- ActivePathways(scores, gmt_file,
cytoscape_file_tag = "enrichmentMap__",
custom_colors = c("violet","green","orange","red"))
To change the color of the combined contribution, a color must be provided to the color_integrated_only parameter.
If the coloring of nodes did not work in Cytoscape after setting the options in the Style panel, check that the EnhancedGraphics Cytoscape app is installed.
