ndexr

Create, handle, validate, visualize and convert networks in the Cytoscape exchange (CX) format to standard data types and objects. The package also provides conversion to and from objects of iGraph and graphNEL. The CX format is also used by the NDEx platform, a online commons for biological networks, and the network visualization software Cytocape.

A client for the OmniPath web service (https://www.omnipathdb.org) and many other resources. It also includes functions to transform and pretty print some of the downloaded data, functions to access a number of other resources such as BioPlex, ConsensusPathDB, EVEX, Gene Ontology, Guide to Pharmacology (IUPHAR/BPS), Harmonizome, HTRIdb, Human Phenotype Ontology, InWeb InBioMap, KEGG Pathway, Pathway Commons, Ramilowski et al. 2015, RegNetwork, ReMap, TF census, TRRUST and Vinayagam et al. 2011. Furthermore, OmnipathR features a close integration with the NicheNet method for ligand activity prediction from transcriptomics data, and its R implementation `nichenetr` (available only on github).

Package to retrieve and visualize data from the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (http://ctdbase.org/). The downloaded data is formated as DataFrames for further downstream analyses.

transomics2cytoscape generates a file for 3D transomics visualization by providing input that specifies the IDs of multiple KEGG pathway layers, their corresponding Z-axis heights, and an input that represents the edges between the pathway layers. The edges are used, for example, to describe the relationships between kinase on a pathway and enzyme on another pathway. This package automates creation of a transomics network as shown in the figure in Yugi.2014 (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2014.07.021) using Cytoscape automation (https://doi.org/10.1186/s13059-019-1758-4).

The aim of TCGAbiolinks is : i) facilitate the GDC open-access data retrieval, ii) prepare the data using the appropriate pre-processing strategies, iii) provide the means to carry out different standard analyses and iv) to easily reproduce earlier research results. In more detail, the package provides multiple methods for analysis (e.g., differential expression analysis, identifying differentially methylated regions) and methods for visualization (e.g., survival plots, volcano plots, starburst plots) in order to easily develop complete analysis pipelines.

This package aims to import, parse, and analyze KEGG data such as KEGG PATHWAY and KEGG MODULE. The package supports visualizing KEGG information using ggplot2 and ggraph through using the grammar of graphics. The package enables the direct visualization of the results from various omics analysis packages.
