A network diffusion approach to inferring sample-specific function reveals functional changes associated with breast cancer.

Abstract excerpt

Guilt-by-association codifies the empirical observation that a gene's function is informed by its neighborhood in a biological network. This would imply that when a gene's network context is altered, for instance in disease condition, so could be the gene's function. Although context-specific changes in biological networks have been explored, the potential changes they may induce on the functional roles of genes...
