BACKGROUND: Computational network biology is an emerging interdisciplinary
research area. Among many other network approaches, probabilistic graphical
models provide a comprehensive probabilistic characterization of interaction
patterns between molecules and the associated uncertainties. RESULTS: In this
article, we first review graphical models, including directed, undirected, and
reciprocal graphs (RG), with an emphasis on the RG models that are curiously
under-utilized in biostatistics and bioinformatics literature. RG's strictly
contain chain graphs as a special case and are suitable to model reciprocal
causality such as feedback mechanism in molecular networks. We then extend the RG
approach to modeling molecular networks by integrating DNA-, RNA- and
protein-level data. We apply the extended RG method to The Cancer Genome Atlas
multi-platform ovarian cancer data and reveal several interesting findings.
CONCLUSIONS: This study aims to review the basics of different probabilistic
graphical models as well as recent development in RG approaches for network
modeling. The extension presented in this paper provides a principled and
efficient way of integrating DNA copy number, DNA methylation, mRNA gene
expression and protein expression.
