Label propagation-based semi-supervised feature selection on decoding clinical phenotypes with RNA-seq data.

In this study, we designed a label propagation-based semi-supervised feature selection model to precisely selected key genes of different disease phenotypes. We conducted experiments using the model with Huntington's disease mice gene expression data to decode the mechanisms of it. We found many cell types, including astrocyte, microglia, and GABAergic neuron, could be involved in the pathological process.
