Hi everybody, I am analyzing two color Agilent microarrays by using LIMMA package. In my specific case the red channel is representing "the reference" while the green channel is "the treatment". Is it enough to use the Target File composition to specify the name of the samples and their corrispondet channels? Or I have to use other specific commands to specify the "swapping" of the colors? Thank you in advance! Regards Giusy

If there is no dye-swap, then what do you mean by "swapping of the colors"? --Naomi At 07:56 PM 2/9/2009, Giusy Della Gatta wrote: >Hi everybody, > >I am analyzing two color Agilent microarrays >by using LIMMA package. >In my specific case the red channel is representing >"the reference" while the green channel is "the treatment". >Is it enough to use the Target File composition to specify the name >of the samples >and their corrispondet channels?

This will make no difference to the statistical tests and p-values. The simplest ways to get the M values right are: Either: Create the design matrix as in the limma manual - say designMatrix. Then switch sign. designMatrix= - designMatrix Then proceed as in the manual. Or: Create the design matrix and do the analysis (without switching sign). Call the output fit.out. The M-values are in fit.out$coef. fit.out$coef= - fit.out$coef At 10:32 PM 2/9/2009, Giusy Della Gatta wrote: >Hi Naomi, >my colleague told me that in the calculation of the M value >the green channel is used as reference by default. >You can see it also by considering the corrispondent formula: >(M = log(R/G) = log R - log G). > >In my experiment, the red color is the reference >so I was thinking that in this case I have to use some >specific command to invert the M formula? > >Thank you! >Giusy > >-----Original Message----- >From: Naomi Altman [mailto:naomi at stat.psu.edu] >Sent: Mon 2/9/2009 9:56 PM >To: Giusy Della Gatta; bioconductor at stat.math.ethz.ch >Subject: Re: [BioC] two color arrays normalization > >If there is no dye-swap, then what do you mean by "swapping of the colors"? > >--Naomi > >At 07:56 PM 2/9/2009, Giusy Della Gatta wrote: > > >Hi everybody, > > > >I am analyzing two color Agilent microarrays > >by using LIMMA package. > >In my specific case the red channel is representing > >"the reference" while the green channel is "the treatment". > >Is it enough to use the Target File composition to specify the name > >of the samples > >and their corrispondet channels?

Dear Giusy, Please keep the discussion on the list. I have forgotten some of the specifics of the code, so I am going to turn this over to someone else to respond. --Naomi At 11:19 AM 2/10/2009, Giusy Della Gatta wrote: >Hi Naomi only another question, >at this point I am wondering why I need the "Target file" >(see in attachment)? >I was sure that by composing this file was automatic the recognition >of my reference and my treatment signals. > >Thank you >Giusy > > >-----Original Message----- >From: Naomi Altman [mailto:naomi at stat.psu.edu] >Sent: Tue 2/10/2009 8:33 AM >To: Giusy Della Gatta; Naomi Altman >Cc: bioconductor at stat.math.ethz.ch >Subject: RE: [BioC] two color arrays normalization > >This will make no difference to the statistical tests and >p-values.

Hi Naomi, I studied the model matrix command and it seems that is the one that I need to construct a new matrix and specify which will be my reference. >From LIMMA user's guide is not clear when I have to use this command. In the guide I found this example: It is a two-color microarray experiments in which a common reference has been used on all the arrays (I have exactly this kind of experiment): > targets <- readTargets("runxtargets.txt") > targets SlideNumber Cy3 Cy5 1 2144 EGFP AML1 2 2145 EGFP AML1 3 2146 AML1 EGFP 4 2147 EGFP AML1.CBFb 5 2148 EGFP AML1.CBFb 6 2149 AML1.CBFb EGFP 7 2158 EGFP CBFb 8 2159 CBFb EGFP 9 2160 EGFP AML1.CBFb 10 2161 AML1.CBFb EGFP 11 2162 EGFP AML1.CBFb 12 2163 AML1.CBFb EGFP 13 2166 EGFP CBFb 14 2167 CBFb EGFP > design <- designMatrix(targets,ref="EGFP") > design AML1 AML1.CBFb CBFb 1 1 0 0 2 1 0 0 3 -1 0 0 4 0 1 0 5 0 1 0 6 0 -1 0 7 0 0 1 8 0 0 -1 9 0 1 0 10 0 -1 0 11 0 1 0 12 0 -1 0 13 0 0 1 14 0 0 -1 > fit <- lmFit(RG, design) in this way the specific matrix is constructed, but why I have to use the "fit<- lmfit" command?

Hi Naomi, I performed the analysis of my micorarrays,but still I don't manage to revert the channels! My experiment consisted into infect cells with an adenovirus: an emty one and an adenovirus expressing for a specific protein. Then I treated the same cells with a specific drug or simply with the vehicle (DMSO). I have 6 microarrays: 3 controls DMSO0-treated and 3 samples drug- treated. In each microarray the green channel is expressing the levels of infected and treated cells while the red channel are not infected cells. For all the experiments I have the same RED CHANNEL reference. I composed the target file as follows: Filename Cy3 Cy5 Control_1b.txt ctrl ref Control_2b.txt ctrl ref Control_3b.txt ctrl ref dexa_dbz_lt_1.txt treat ref dexa_dbz_lt_2.txt treat ref dexa_dbz_lt_3.txt treat ref and the I used the following script: >targets=readTargets("target_frame_ltbarc_pgedit.giusy") >RG<-read.maimages(targets$FileName, source="agilent", ext="txt") >MA<-MA.RG(RG, bc.method="normexp") >MA<-normalizeWithinArrays(RG, method="loess") >design <- modelMatrix(targets, ref="ref") > design ctrl treat [1,] -1 0 [2,] -1 0 [3,] -1 0 [4,] 0 -1 [5,] 0 -1 [6,] 0 -1 >fit<-lmFit(MA,design) >cont.matrix<-cbind("ctrl-ref"=c(1,0), "treat-ref"=c(0,1)) >cont.matrix ctrl-ref treat-ref [1,] 1 0 [2,] 0 1 >fit2<-contrasts.fit(fit, cont.matrix) >d1 <- ebayes(fit2) >toptable(fit2,adjust="fdr") I don't know if I am still omitting something, because I have the positive controls of this experiment that are going exactly in the opposite way!! May you can help me? Thank you in advance!

Hi Giusy, Move the minus signs from the first design matrix to the 2nd and I think it will work fine. --Naomi At 06:07 PM 2/17/2009, Giusy Della Gatta wrote: >Hi Naomi, > >I performed the analysis of my micorarrays,but still I don't manage >to revert the channels! >My experiment consisted into infect cells with an adenovirus: an emty one >and an adenovirus expressing for a specific protein.

Hi Giusy, It shouldn't matter if you put the minus signs in the design matrix or the contrast matrix, they will do the same thing. Actually, the contrast matrix is completely unnecessary, the columns of the design matrix already specify the differences between the ref and your two other groups. Now, are you having trouble getting the results switched, or is it just that the results for a few genes are the opposite of what you expect to happen? Let me walk you through a way to check that the directions of the M values are being reversed. Your design matrix is: >Filename Cy3 Cy5 >Control_1b.txt ctrl ref >Control_2b.txt ctrl ref >Control_3b.txt ctrl ref >dexa_dbz_lt_1.txt treat ref >dexa_dbz_lt_2.txt treat ref >dexa_dbz_lt_3.txt treat ref Therefore, the M values in your MA object are log2(Cy5/Cy3), which is either log2(ref/ctrl) or log2(ref/treat). A positive M value means up in ref compared to the ctrl (or treat), but you really want the opposite, that positive values mean up in ctrl (or treat) as compared to the ref. Your design matrix as created by modelMatrix is: ctrl treat [1,] 1 0 [2,] 1 0 [3,] 1 0 [4,] 0 1 [5,] 0 1 [6,] 0 1 Even though the column names say "ctrl" and "treat", they actually mean "ref-ctrl" and "ref-treat"; this is because the first column indicates the M values from the first three arrays in the original orientation, which is log2(Cy5/Cy3), or log2(ref) - log2(ctrl). If you use lmFit with this design matrix: fit<-lmFit(MA,design) The fit$coef values will be positive or negative, "up" or "down" in the ref as compared to the ctrl (or treat). There are many different ways to flip these, your contrast matrix with -1s is one way, but a quicker way is to just multiply the original design matrix by -1: fit2 <- lmFit(MA, design*-1) Now, compare the direction of change between the two fit objects: fit$coef[1:5,] fit2$coef[1:5,] The magnitude of the values shouldn't change, but the direction should be switched. If you are absolutely sure that the ref was in Cy5 on your arrays, then the fit2 object should contain the correct orientation of "up" or "down" in the ctrl as compared to the ref. However, if the positive controls are going in the opposite direction of the way you expect them to be, it's not because you are setting up the contrasts incorrectly. Either you have somehow switched the samples on the arrays, or the probes for the positive control are measuring a different part of the transcript that give a different result than you expect.

Hi Giusy, M-values are the ratios for each array individually. If you want to output these but in reversed form, all you have to do is multiply them by -1: rev.Mval <- MA$M * -1 There are no M values in the fit2 object, because instead of the individual array ratios, the model has calculated the "average" ratio value for each column, which are called coefficients. So the fit2$coef contains the log2(FC) values for the ctrl-ref and treat-ref comparisons. You should spend some time reading through the limma User's Guide. It explains all of this in detail, along with functions that can be used to look at and output your data. limmaUsersGuide() As always, if something is not working for you, it's best to include the code that is not working instead of just saying "it doesn't work".

Thank you Jenny! Not only the controls but all the arrays are going all the way round! With yours advices the values are (correctly) switched: > fit$coef[1:5,] ctrl treat [1,] -0.024321790 0.03127735 [2,] -0.022173037 0.04670783 [3,] -0.007570963 0.05101542 [4,] -0.144515478 0.76697238 [5,] 0.012584011 0.09071233 > fit2$coef[1:5,] ctrl treat [1,] 0.024321790 -0.03127735 [2,] 0.022173037 -0.04670783 [3,] 0.007570963 -0.05101542 [4,] 0.144515478 -0.76697238 [5,] -0.012584011 -0.09071233 but still when I am printing out the M values for all the genes from the MAlist object the values are not switched, while if I try to recover the M values from the fit2 object I don't find them. Please, may you help me also with this? Thank you very much Giusy -----Original Message----- From: Jenny Drnevich [mailto:drnevich@illinois.edu] Sent: Wed 2/18/2009 11:51 AM To: Giusy Della Gatta; Naomi Altman; bioconductor at stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: Re: [BioC] two color arrays normalization Hi Giusy, It shouldn't matter if you put the minus signs in the design matrix or the contrast matrix, they will do the same thing. Actually, the contrast matrix is completely unnecessary, the columns of the design matrix already specify the differences between the ref and your two other groups. Now, are you having trouble getting the results switched, or is it just that the results for a few genes are the opposite of what you expect to happen? Let me walk you through a way to check that the directions of the M values are being reversed. Your design matrix is: >Filename Cy3 Cy5 >Control_1b.txt ctrl ref >Control_2b.txt ctrl ref >Control_3b.txt ctrl ref >dexa_dbz_lt_1.txt treat ref >dexa_dbz_lt_2.txt treat ref >dexa_dbz_lt_3.txt treat ref Therefore, the M values in your MA object are log2(Cy5/Cy3), which is either log2(ref/ctrl) or log2(ref/treat). A positive M value means up in ref compared to the ctrl (or treat), but you really want the opposite, that positive values mean up in ctrl (or treat) as compared to the ref. Your design matrix as created by modelMatrix is: ctrl treat [1,] 1 0 [2,] 1 0 [3,] 1 0 [4,] 0 1 [5,] 0 1 [6,] 0 1 Even though the column names say "ctrl" and "treat", they actually mean "ref-ctrl" and "ref-treat"; this is because the first column indicates the M values from the first three arrays in the original orientation, which is log2(Cy5/Cy3), or log2(ref) - log2(ctrl). If you use lmFit with this design matrix: fit<-lmFit(MA,design) The fit$coef values will be positive or negative, "up" or "down" in the ref as compared to the ctrl (or treat). There are many different ways to flip these, your contrast matrix with -1s is one way, but a quicker way is to just multiply the original design matrix by -1: fit2 <- lmFit(MA, design*-1) Now, compare the direction of change between the two fit objects: fit$coef[1:5,] fit2$coef[1:5,] The magnitude of the values shouldn't change, but the direction should be switched. If you are absolutely sure that the ref was in Cy5 on your arrays, then the fit2 object should contain the correct orientation of "up" or "down" in the ctrl as compared to the ref. However, if the positive controls are going in the opposite direction of the way you expect them to be, it's not because you are setting up the contrasts incorrectly. Either you have somehow switched the samples on the arrays, or the probes for the positive control are measuring a different part of the transcript that give a different result than you expect.

Hi Jenny, I modified again the script, but I am still stuck with this analysis. I am interested into have as output the M values of all my microarray (3 control and 3 treatment). We will manually calculate the differentially expressed genes and the most significative ones. I followed your advices, I eliminated the contrast matrix and at the end of my analysis I converted the Mvalues signs by multiplying *-1, but why I have only one output column when I display the results of this command: rev.Mval <- MA$M * -1? How can I extract the reverted M values for all the genes and all the samples? Below the script that I used: > library(limma) > # Read in data files > targets=readTargets("target_frame_ltbarc_pgedit.giusy") > targets Filename Cy3 Cy5 1 Control_1b.txt ctrl ref 2 Control_2b.txt ctrl ref 3 Control_3b.txt ctrl ref 4 dexa_dbz_lt_1.txt treat ref 5 dexa_dbz_lt_2.txt treat ref 6 dexa_dbz_lt_3.txt treat ref > RG<-read.maimages(targets$FileName, source="agilent", ext="txt") Read Control _1b.txt Read Control _2b.txt Read Control_3b.txt Read dexa_dbz_lt_1.txt Read dexa_dbz_lt_2.txt Read dexa_dbz_lt_3.txt > # convert RG object in a MAlist using MA>RG() function > MA<-MA.RG(RG, bc.method="none") > # perform background correction > RG<-backgroundCorrect (RG,method="none") > # perform within array normalization > MA.n<-normalizeWithinArrays(RG, method="loess") > # perform between array normalization > MA.bn<-normalizeBetweenArrays(MA.n, method="Rquantile") > MA.bn An object of class "MAList" $targets FileName Control _1b Control _1b Control _2b Control _2b Control_3b Control_3b dexa_dbz_lt_1 dexa_dbz_lt_1 dexa_dbz_lt_2 dexa_dbz_lt_2 dexa_dbz_lt_3 dexa_dbz_lt_3 $genes Row Col Start Sequence ProbeUID 1 1 1 0 0 2 1 2 0 0 3 1 3 0 0 4 1 4 0 GGCGCAGGTTAATATGGGCCCTGGACTGATGGAGGGCGCTGGGTAGGGAG 2 5 1 5 0 ACCAAGTACAAAGATAGTTATAACCAAGTACAAAGATAGTTATA 4 ControlType ProbeName GeneName SystematicName Description 1 1 DarkCorner DarkCorner DarkCorner 2 1 DarkCorner DarkCorner DarkCorner 3 1 DarkCorner DarkCorner DarkCorner 4 0 P0156694 XM_113729 P0156694 BARCODE 5 0 P0029969 NM_002288 P0029969 SENSE 243499 more rows ... $source [1] "agilent" $printer $ngrid.r [1] 1 $ngrid.c [1] 1 $nspot.r [1] 534 $nspot.c [1] 456 $M Control _1b Control _2b Control_3b dexa_dbz_lt_1 dexa_dbz_lt_2 [1,] 0.028631881 0.01576235 0.02857114 -0.04946816 -0.03046490 [2,] 0.002111331 0.03122844 0.03317934 -0.08001562 -0.02675807 [3,] 0.028839984 -0.03593778 0.02981069 -0.01823344 -0.08365155 [4,] 0.540221183 0.14265895 -0.24933370 -0.78564142 -1.07674330 [5,] -0.044016945 0.03051181 -0.02424689 -0.08100343 -0.07191502 dexa_dbz_lt_3 [1,] -0.01389899 [2,] -0.03334981 [3,] -0.05116126 [4,] -0.43853242 [5,] -0.11921854 243499 more rows ... $A Control _1b Control _2b Control_3b dexa_dbz_lt_1 dexa_dbz_lt_2 [1,] 5.742711 5.712913 5.718245 5.757256 5.763494 [2,] 5.822337 5.733033 5.681233 5.793217 5.795643 [3,] 5.761935 5.674629 5.759187 5.797976 5.788469 [4,] 8.808693 9.526645 9.915676 10.210170 10.306222 [5,] 5.788424 5.765753 5.790519 5.801103 5.814293 dexa_dbz_lt_3 [1,] 5.758196 [2,] 5.807207 [3,] 5.794197 [4,] 9.836943 [5,] 5.828283 243499 more rows ... > # Create design matrix > design <- modelMatrix(targets, ref="ref") Found unique target names: ctrl ref treat > design ctrl treat [1,] -1 0 [2,] -1 0 [3,] -1 0 [4,] 0 -1 [5,] 0 -1 [6,] 0 -1 > #revert M signs > rev.Mval <- MA.bn$M * -1 > rev.Mval (THIS IS ONLY AN EXTRACT OF ALL THE ENTIRE COLUMN THAT WAS IN OUTPUT) [9088,] -5.989322e-02 [9089,] 4.548476e-02 [9090,] -5.121079e-01 [9091,] 8.276698e-01 [9092,] -7.587297e-01 [9093,] -1.804467e-02 [9094,] -5.659472e-02 [9095,] -6.725387e-02 Thank you, Giusy -----Original Message----- From: Jenny Drnevich [mailto:drnevich@illinois.edu] Sent: Wed 2/18/2009 1:34 PM To: Giusy Della Gatta; Naomi Altman; bioconductor at stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: RE: [BioC] two color arrays normalization Hi Giusy, M-values are the ratios for each array individually. If you want to output these but in reversed form, all you have to do is multiply them by -1: rev.Mval <- MA$M * -1 There are no M values in the fit2 object, because instead of the individual array ratios, the model has calculated the "average" ratio value for each column, which are called coefficients. So the fit2$coef contains the log2(FC) values for the ctrl-ref and treat-ref comparisons. You should spend some time reading through the limma User's Guide. It explains all of this in detail, along with functions that can be used to look at and output your data. limmaUsersGuide() As always, if something is not working for you, it's best to include the code that is not working instead of just saying "it doesn't work".

Hi Giusy, It looks like you are doing everything right. How are you "outputting" your rev.Mval object? If you are simply typing rev.Mval at the prompt, then it's probably spitting out the entire large matrix; my guess is that your display can only show 5 columns at a time, and the 6th column gets put out afterward. The easy way to check to see how big the object is is: > dim(rev.Mval) or to check just the five few rows: > rev.Mval[1:5,] You can output the object and open it in excel using: > write.csv(rev.Mval) As for manually calculating the differential expression, why in the world would you want to do that? The proper way to analyze microarray data is not by doing a simple t-test for each gene; there are issues with multiple hypothesis testing, plus limma implements an empirical Bayes correction that helps to improve your power by borrowing information across genes (if you get penalized for testing thousands of genes, you should at least get the benefit of testing thousands of genes).

Hi Giusy, Please keep the discussion on the list so if anyone else has a question like yours, the can see the answers in the archive. First of all, you can't use the same design matrix with the rev.Mval object as you did with the original MA object because you have reversed the order of the reference! Secondly, you should be using eBayes(), not ebayes. Thirdly, the p-values from your original modeling with the MA object will be exactly the same as what you are trying to do with the rev.Mval object. Finally, you should probably try to get help from a local statistician or someone else familiar with microarray analysis, because IMO you are not quite doing it right, but it's too long and complicated to try to say why on e-mail.
