Abstrakt: The discovery of potential disease-causing genes can aid medical progress. The post-genomic era has made this a more difficult task. Modern high-throughput methods have not solved the problem of identifying disease genes. Conventional methods cannot be used to investigate many rare or lethal diseases. Monitoring gene expression values in different samples using microarray technology is one of the best and most accurate ways to identify disease-causing genes. One of the most recent advances in experimental molecular biology is microarrays, which allow researchers to simultaneously monitor the expression levels of thousands of genes. Statistical analysis of microarray data might aid gene discovery by revealing pathways related to the target gene and facilitating identification of candidate genes. Systems biology, an interdisciplinary approach, has emerged as a crucial analytic tool with the potential to reveal previously unidentified causes and consequences of human illness. Genetic, environmental, immunological, or neurological factors have been implicated in the developing complex disorders like cancer. Because of this, it is important to approach the study of such disease from a novel perspective. The system biology approach allows us to rapidly identify disease-causing genes and assess their viability as therapeutic targets. This chapter demonstrates systems biology approaches to identify candidate genes using public database. Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is used as a model disease to show how systems biology can be used successfully to identify and prioritize disease genes.
